The ministry said quarantine-free travel with New South Wales remains in place. New cases have bought the cluster in Sydney's Bondi to nine, with one new case also picked up in Queensland.
Last night, the ministry asked anyone in New Zealand who was at Westfield Bondi Junction in Sydney at specific times on 12-13 June to get tested immediately.
Anyone in New Zealand at the Westfield Bondi Junction mall (including the car park) in Sydney's Bondi Junction on Saturday, 12 June between 11am to 12pm or Sunday, 13 June between 1pm to 2pm and 4pm to 4.30pm should get tested immediately.
This follows a decision by New South Wales public health officials last night to classify the entire Westfield Bondi Junction mall and its car park as a location of interest, not just the particular shops earlier identified after a case last week involving a very fleeting contact with another case at the busy mall.
There was one new Covid-19 case in managed isolation facilities on Friday.
