Wally Haumaha Deputy Police Commissioner said he was unsure whether or not the checkpoints would be removed in the coming weeks after we go into Level 3. Leaders of Ngāti Porou and Te Whānau a Apanui said they will keep their checkpoints to keep their regions safe.
When it goes down to Level 2, iwi say they will reassess.
