A confirmed Covid-19 case in the Hutt Valley has led to the council reversing its controversial decision not to use vaccine passes for most council facilities, including libraries.
“Given this [case] and the high transmission rate of the Delta strain, we have made the decision to change the settings at our public facilities, moving to more restrictive settings,” the council said in a statement.
Mayor Wayne Guppy is urging everybody to wear masks and follow the guidelines on wearing masks.

Love to advise the unnamed writer that work in earnest started nearly three months ago on the Blue Mountains Campus and lots of people can vouch for this as they file past almost every day.
If this is the news of the day, then there is little use for the Leader as a newspaper.
In fact most of the information in this main item of the Dec 15 edition has previously been documented in better format in the Leader which at the time was considerably behind other news media including the DomPost, Stuff and the Willis Bond website.
With a confirmed COVID case in the community, the Upper Hutt City Council is "monitoring" the situation. If there a confirmed transmission, it will change the rules around vaccine passes.
Upper Hutt is one of the few councils in New Zealand not requiring the use of passes.
