From Checkpoint, 5:39 pm on 24 August 2020

Auckland Mayor Phil Goff has responded to the Prime Minister's decision to continue level three restrictions until Sunday night.

He says he's disappointed in the extensions of the Covid-19 level 3 restrictions but agrees that the gains made so far can't be risked with an early exit.
