The Government is tightening the rules at borders as Kiwis flood home from around the world. It also refreshed the ban on cruise ships and tightened up the rules for crews on foreign ships, effectively ending much of shore leave. Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern announced the new rules on Monday following a meeting of Cabinet and two new cases that were caught at the border. The number of Kiwis returning home from overseas has doubled since last month, with 4200 now in quarantine facilities. That is a large number of Kiwis coming home, and you can keep in mind their access to support should they lose their job is difficult in Australia," Ardern said.
