Cumulatively, these amendments create the framework that we need to provide better protection for New Zealanders in a variety of different settings as we move to a less restrictive environment in the way that we are managing COVID-19. They'll bring greater freedoms to us. They will ensure that those who are vaccinated can be recognised for the extra protection that their vaccination is providing to themselves and those around them. These restrictions will help us. They are justified given the situation that the pandemic and the public health response requires. They'll help us to better manage the public health risks that are caused by those who haven't been vaccinated, because the reality is, now, the key thing to bringing greater freedoms for us all is to encourage those people to be vaccinated.
