National Party leader Judith Collins says more breaches of the lockdown laws are likely, and the police need to apply the law with an even hand.
Destiny Church leader Brian Tamaki is promising to keep holding anti-lockdown protests, following his rally in Auckland at the weekend.
No-one was arrested or issued with an infringement notice at the event. Police were aware of the event before it was held and Police Commissioner Andrew Coster went as far as to meet with Tamaki and tell him if the protest went ahead he risked enforcement action from police.
Collins said on the day of the protest it was clear not much could be done to shut it down, but public perception is important.
"You can't seriously expect that they're going to be arresting 1000s of people, but it is important, though, that the public sees the police, and that the reporting shows that the police are using an even hand."
Collins told the programme the police need to ensure they are approaching lockdown breaches in the same way, whether it's a protest or a large gathering for a gang funeral.
Collins said she believed police were right to clear a gathering at a West Auckland funeral home over the weekend.
When asked what the "even hand" was, if not dispersing the Destiny Church protest was right, but also dispersing the gathering at the funeral home was also right, Collins said the protest should not have happened.
"Better for it not to have happened, and the police could have no doubt stated that to Brian Tamaki and others. It is very important that we don't end up with these big gatherings because of their possibility of becoming super spreader events."
