Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern is holding her weekly post-Cabinet press conference at the Beehive in Wellington where she will make a traffic light settings announcement.
The Government promised to review the COVID Protection Framework settings on December 13. The next settings announcement won't come until January 17.
At the most restrictive 'red' level, gatherings for the vaccinated are restricted to 100. It means Auckland, along with more than 10 other districts with a mix of COVID-19 cases and low vaccination levels, cannot have any large events.
But since 92 percent of eligible Aucklanders are fully vaccinated, COVID-19 cases are leveling off, and hospitals are coping, the Government is being urged to let Aucklanders enjoy a less restrictive summer after months of lockdown.
