"Returnees can have items delivered to their facility but deliveries cannot contain any illegal items or items that present a health and safety risk – this includes items with naked flames. There are limits on the amount of alcohol that can be delivered to a person's room each day while in MIQ. MBIE's policy on alcohol, obtained under the Official Information Act, says returnees are allowed a "reasonable quantity of alcohol" delivered or purchased from the facility each day. The rules are meant to prevent guests getting so drunk that they breach MIQ rules such as social distancing, wearing PPE or present other safety risks to themselves or staff.
