From the zoom
LAWYER SPEAK "The Vaccinations Order was made by the Minister for COVID-19 Response
under the COVID-19 Public Health Response Act 2020. While the Ministry
provided advice to the government on the drafting of the Vaccinations Order
(and later, on its administration), the decision about whether to implement
the Vaccinations Order was not one the Ministry was able to, or did, make.

The Ministry was involved with the development of advice about vaccination
and PCBUs' obligations under the Vaccinations Order, including public advice available through government websites. Employers were not
directed through this advice, or otherwise, to apply a particular employment outcome if a person did not get vaccinated. The Ministry did not have any role in how employers chose to implement or comply with the Vaccinations
Order. This was a matter for employees and employers to work through, considering their specific operational arrangements and what could be accommodated.

Liz takes us through so much in this zoom - A definite must watch!!!
