COVID-19 has changed our ways of working in myriad ways. To help keep track of legislative changes, Westlaw NZ has a resource that forms a handy first-port-of-call if you are looking for an Act, Regulation, Notice or Order that deals with COVID-19.

The COVID-19: New Zealand Legislation list is attached to all main secondary sources pages on Westlaw NZ and is updated when new legislation is added to our searchable database.
