NZ First gets new Covid-19 inquiry
NZ First has secured a new inquiry into the Government's Covid response.
The previous Labour Government launched a Royal Commission into the
Covid-19 pandemic, but NZ First leader Winston Peters criticised it and questioned its Independence.
In NZ First's agreement with National, the coalition has agreed to urgently establish a "full scale, wide ranging,independent inquiry".
This new inquiry would analyse lockdowns, vaccine procurement and
efficacy, the social and economic impacts of the alert levels, and the justification of all pandemic regulations and decisions.
The coalition also agreed to urgently "reserve against proposed amendments
to WHO health regulations".

This last item is huge. It is almost gone under the radar.
So there we have some good news. It does seem that after 41 days we have a winner. A Government which has listened to the people. Might not get it
right all the time. Let us hope the whitewash has also been thrown out.
Finally, note that the items above are NZF input into the Government. Credit where credit is due.
