Prime Minister outlines new categories of permitted travel across alert level 3 Auckland boundary
From Wednesday, she said people will be able to travel across the Auckland boundary and into a level 2 environment if they are:
==================================================
***relocating permanently, either to move into a new property that they've purchased or rented, to start a new job, or to travel to a tertiary education residence
***if they have shared caregiving arrangements, for instance joint custody of a child
***if they're returning home from alert level 3 to an alert level 2 environment
There are rules.
=============
"If you're leaving Auckland and not returning, you need to get a negative test within 72 hours before your departure. That's the same requirement as those who are already permitted to move across the border," Ardern said.
"For those who are crossing the boundary for shared caregiving arrangements, because this involves more back and forth travel, they'll need to have a test within seven days of each crossing, the same requirement for those moving freight or part of essential work."
All must carry proof of the need to travel and cannot be sick.
Ardern said travel for funerals and tangi will still only be considered on a case-by-case basis, because they are considered risky in terms of potential transmission of COVID-19.
