The home quarantine system requires plenty of work, mainly around food deliveries for people, home health checks, and daily health check ups over video of phone call.
Hipkins said it was a necessary step to prevent MIQ spaces being limited even further for people coming to New Zealand from overseas. RNZ sought Cabinet's own modelling of where case numbers could be as restrictions are eased and the outbreak surges. The request was declined, with a spokesperson saying the modelling data will be proactively released in coming weeks.
But Hipkins said it did not take a mathematician to understand that case numbers were doubling every couple of weeks, and would continue to soar. So I think we can all do our own maths and figure out those models. Hipkins said if people strictly followed alert level rules, the exponential growth in cases could be limited. The ACT Party supports moving towards quarantining people at home, and in fact would like it extended even further.

Seymour cites the plan for Parliament when it resumes after the two week recess: "Trevor Mallard, the Speaker of Parliament, has just said Members of Parliament can go from Auckland to Wellington and isolate for five days - if we can trust politicians to do it, surely we can trust the honest citizens of New Zealand to self isolate too.
