- There will be regional boundaries, there will be no travel allowed between regions unless required for essential services.
- Boundaries maintained in the last February lockdown will be reinstated.

O’Sullivan says Quail Island in Lyttelton Harbour was used to quarantine people with leprosy more than a century ago, and is perfectly located to be an MIQ facility.
The architect, who has an office overlooking the harbour, has suggested a prefabricated pod design could provide suitable accommodation on the island. The pods would be environmentally and aesthetically responsive to the landscape.
The government has previously resisted suggestions that we should develop purpose-built MIQ facilities, including isolating people on military bases or other remote locations, in favour of using hotels.
What do you think of O'Sullivan's idea? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
