Thread: Level 3 hunting ban lifted - only on private land

A ban on hunting under Covid-19 alert level 3 has been lifted.

Hunters will be able to hunt on private land with special restrictions when New Zealand moves to Covid-19 Alert Level 3, but not on public conservation land.

The ban was described as an "error" by the finance minister, as the Government came under pressure to allow the activity.

Hunting had been deemed risky and was banned under the lockdown, and according to Government advice issued last week, the outdoor activity would remain banned.
