From Checkpoint, 6:19 pm on 27 January 2021

Waitangi Day is set to go ahead as planned this year, despite other large-scale events in the north being moved online or postponed.

It comes as iwi leaders decided to move the National Iwi Chairs Forum online in the wake of the confirmed community case of Covid-19 in Northland.
