National says scrutiny of the Government, in person, is critical.
The Prime Minister suspended parliament last week, on advice from the Director-General of Health Ashley Bloomfield.
But, it will now resume tomorrow, after National and ACT rejected a proposal to hold it virtually.
National Covid-19 spokesperson Chris Bishop told Kate Hawkesby the select committees on Zoom were pretty inadequate.
“We need to get back to Parliament and ask the questions New Zealanders need the answers to like: why is our vaccine rollout so slow? Why are we the slowest in the developed world? Why did we not prepare for this Delta outbreak properly?”
