Police are searching hospitals and schools across the country after threats were made against a number of organisations, RNZ is reporting.

What you need to know:
- Bomb threats were made within emails received around 9am today (23 November).
- RNZ understands police have been searching the premises at Auckland City Hospital and Manukau Superclinic.

Police are working to establish the origin of the emails and have yet to establish any actual threat to any organisation.

'Members of the public with appointments at our hospitals or needing emergency treatment should be assured it is safe to attend their local hospital as usual.'
