Overseas NZers disappointed MIQ room release cancelled

From Morning Report, 8:18 am on 19 January 2022

Thursday's MIQ room release has been postponed - just two days from when it was scheduled.

The head of MIQ Chris Bunny released a statement last night, saying the decision was made due to the unprecedented number of Omicron cases coming into New Zealand.

A decision on when the next room lobby will be held will be made in coming weeks.

Nicole Dolamore - a New Zealander living in London - told Sarah Robson it was such a disappointment.
