pandemic?
Hon MICHAEL WOODHOUSE to the Minister of
Health: Can he confirm Ministry of Health guidelines dated 9
June that people can only apply for compassionate leave from

managed isolation and had a negative COVID-19 test; if so,
how many days of managed isolation did the two confirmed
COVID-19 cases announced yesterday complete before they left
on 13 June?
Hon JUDITH COLLINS to the Minister for
Economic Development: Does he stand by his statement in the
House yesterday that “There is a long, long list of
projects in the Government pipeline of infrastructure
projects, including housing and roads and schools and health
and rail —far too many to take up all the time of the
House recounting”, and which of these projects, if any,
will begin before the general election?

Government putting in place to help employers to keep
apprentices earning and learning?
BRETT HUDSON to

Christchurch shooter may have been deficient, and what
actions, if any, did he take to ensure that the firearm

CHRIS
BISHOP to the Minister of Transport: Is he still
“reasonably confident”, as stated in the House on 12
March 2020, that Cabinet will consider the recommendations
from the Ministry of Transport on Auckland light rail before
the general election; and has he seen reports from the Rt
Hon Winston Peters that it is “clear as daylight” that
Auckland light rail will not get Cabinet sign-off before the
general election?
CHLÖE SWARBRICK to the Minister
for Climate Change: What are the Government’s next steps
for climate change action now that the Climate Change
Response (Emissions Trading Reform) Amendment Bill has
passed?
NICOLA WILLIS to the Minister of Housing:
How many additional KiwiBuild homes, if any, will be built

that project from $19 million to $40 million, and will she
