Today the Privileges Committee released an interim report saying that it unanimously agreed the video was misleading. "The video represents a blatant doctoring of Parliament's proceedings that is intended to mislead viewers by implying a proposal for compulsory vaccination of New Zealanders," the committee said. The Advance NZ video claims the act will force citizens to be vaccinated. The committee said the footage used in the video was about "the possibility" of requiring overseas arrivals to be vaccinated before entering the country. Misusing parliamentary footage can be treated as a contempt, which can be fined up to $1000.
