Public submissions on Phase 2 of the Covid 19 Inquiry are now open to the public via an online portal – and we want your say.

New Zealand First campaigned on and committed to a full scale, wide ranging, independent inquiry into how the Covid pandemic was handled in New Zealand.

The original inquiry, started by the previous government, was nothing more than a political tool.

We revised the previous inquiry’s terms of reference and replaced the commissioners.

‘Phase 2’ of the Inquiry now includes vaccine procurement and approvals, vaccine safety and efficacy, vaccine mandates, and the monitoring and reporting of adverse reactions.

The Phase 2 submission period will be open to the public until 27 April 2025. You can submit your feedback by going to www.covid19inquiry.nz or calling 0800 500 306.

It is important for all New Zealanders to have the opportunity to provide feedback on how they were affected during such extraordinary times.

Your contribution to this process matters.

New Zealand First remains committed to strengthening democracy and freedom - your participation is an important part in achieving that.
