Watch: Michael Morrah's report.
A  long-awaited report into New Zealand's COVID-19 testing systems and the border response concluded stamping out the August outbreak was a "major achievement", considering the numerous flaws investigators found in our systems. 
The report, compiled by Heather Simpson and Sir Brian Roche, was delivered at the end of September, but only released by COVID-19 Response Minister Chris Hipkins on Friday. 
Hipkins said a number of recommendations made in the report had already been implemented or were underway, as had recommendations in a separate report by Sir Brian on contact tracing.
