“All of the evidence so far points to Omicron being the most transmissible COVID-19 variant yet. There's no doubt this is disappointing and will upset many holiday plans, but it's important to set these changes out clearly today so they can have time to consider those plans.”

“The Human Rights Commission doesn't favour a public or private approach - that's for the government of the day to decide, but whatever approach is chosen it must deliver and in recent years there's no doubt whatsoever it has failed. These treaties [international human rights law including the right to a decent home] have been ratified, so they're legally binding but somehow there's an attack of amnesia when politicians and officials fly back home over the Pacific. The right to enjoy a safe, secure, decent home is critically important for wellbeing. Without a decent home, it's very difficult for people to be active members of society.”

“Delta does raise some big questions that we're going to have to grapple with, you know less than a 24-hour period for someone getting it and passing it on to others … that's like nothing we've dealt with in this pandemic so far, and it does change everything. It does mean that all of our existing protections … start to look less adequate and less robust. As a result of that we are looking very closely at what more we can do there. At some point we will have to start to be more open in the future.”

“We're simply not in a position to fully reopen just yet. When we move, we will be careful and deliberate, because we want to move with confidence and with as much certainty as possible.”

“You'll see Australia and New Zealand have broadly been positioned in exactly the same place on these issues [trade with China and human rights in China] consistently so I really push back on any suggestion that we are not taking a strong stance on these incredibly important issues.”

“We cannot ignore, obviously, what's happening in Australia with their relationship with China. And if they are close to an eye of the storm or in the eye of the storm, we've got to legitimately ask ourselves - it may only be a matter of time before the storm gets closer to us. The signal I'm sending to exporters is that they need to think about diversification in this context - Covid-19, broadening relationships across our region, and the buffering aspects of if something significant happened with China. Would they be able to withstand the impact?”

“This has not been an ordinary election, and it's not an ordinary time. It's been full of uncertainty and anxiety, and we set out to be an antidote to that. We are living in an increasingly polarized world, a place where, more and more, people have lost the ability to see one another's point of view. I think in this election, New Zealanders have shown that this is not who we are.”

“New Zealand can no longer trust that Hong Kong’s criminal justice system is sufficiently independent from China. If China in future shows adherence to the ‘one country, two systems’ framework then we could reconsider this decision.”
