The pause on quarantine-free travel between New South Wales and New Zealand will be lifted on Sunday night.

But New Zealand’s COVID-19 Response Minister Chris Hipkins said the end of the pause of the trans-Tasman bubble with Sydney will always depend on the development of more cases.

This comes after NSW detected no new local cases of COVID-19 for the second consecutive day, despite more than 22,000 tests being conducted.
