Hon KRIS FAAFOI (Minister of Immigration): The Government has been aware of issues that were caused by our border closure since it happened on 19 March of last year. The Government closed the border to keep COVID-19 out and to keep New Zealanders safe. While unprecedented, it has been one of our most effective measures. We were, at the time, aware that this decision would impact and cause disruptions to many people, including temporary work visa holders such as the nurses that the member speaks of. Around the specific issue of split families, I'm advised that I first received a formal briefing on 14 December last year. I acknowledge the difficulties for families that have been affected by the border closure, and I have sought guidance on how many temporary visa holders would be eligible if we were to open a pathway for them to bring in family in the same way other critical workers can.
