The Matariki cluster will send Aotearoa a new public holiday next year.

The actual date of Matariki will move but is expected to always fall on a Friday or Monday.

The first day off will be Friday June 24 in 2022.

Government advice suggests the new Matariki public holiday will cost businesses between $377 - $448 million.

But that advice does not include any potential economic benefits from the new public holiday, set to be introduced from next year.

The estimated cost has come under fire from ACT leader David Seymour who said the public holiday amounted to a tax on business.

Seymour suggested that the Government get rid of another public holiday to make way for Matariki.

There is one new case of Covid-19 in managed isolation, a week after the most recent community outbreak was announced in Auckland.

The new case arrived in New Zealand from Singapore on February 16 and tested positive after their routine day 3 test. One previously reported case has been reclassified as under investigation, meaning the number of active cases remains at 51.

The Ministry of Health also confirmed all close contacts associated with the Auckland family of three at the centre of the latest community outbreak had returned negative tests.

These include those linked to the school and travel group to New Plymouth.

The last cases detected in the community were on Friday, taking the total linked to the cluster involving a daughter, mother and father, to seven.

Papatoetoe High School

As at 8am on Sunday, a total of 31 close contacts and 1,413 casual plus contacts had been identified at Papatoetoe High School.

Twenty five health professionals were the first in the country to be vaccinated on Friday, before they administered the vaccines.

The number of casual plus contacts has again decreased due to some people not being at school at the time of exposure, the ministry said.

Of the casual plus contacts, that include the wider student and staff school population, 1,395 have returned negative results, with one positive (Case E, who is a classmate of the original case), and 17 results still to come in.

One negative result, reported on Saturday has been removed from the tally as that person is no longer considered a casual plus contact.
