COVID-19 Protection Framework

As the COVID-19 situation continues to evolve, New Zealand has adjusted the COVID-19 Protection Framework, also known as the traffic light system.

The new, highly simplified traffic light settings are as follows.

RED

  • Indoor capacity limits for gatherings and events with My Vaccine Pass increase to 200.
  • There will be no capacity limits for outdoor activities with My Vaccine Pass.
  • Face masks are no longer required at outdoor settings.
  • No requirement to scan in or for a business to display a QR code or keep records.

 

ORANGE

  • No capacity limits for indoor and outdoor gatherings and events, but face masks still required in many indoor settings
  • No requirement to scan in or for a business to display a QR code or keep records.

 

GREEN

  • No requirements, but good health habits should still be maintained to help look after those who are more vulnerable to COVID-19

All of New Zealand remains at the RED setting within the COVID-19 Protection Framework.

For HPSNZ that means all of our locations are operating at RED. More details are included in the ‘COVID-19 – Guidance for Sports’ section below.
