Porirua council requires vaccination passes
Porirua City Council is requiring all staff to be fully vaccinated against Covid-19 from January 17, and vaccination passes will be required at all council premises from December 3.
Chief executive Wendy Walker says as a public service organisation the health and safety of staff, customers and the wider Porirua community was the key driver behind these decisions.
Council has also made the decision that when New Zealand moves to the traffic light system on December 3, all council facilities and premises will require users to show vaccination passes.
