The Government's asking for input as it looks to expand the Covid-19 Inquiry.

It wants the panel to look into the use of lockdowns, socio-economic impacts and how much disruption was caused for business, education and healthcare.

Minister of Internal Affairs Brooke van Velden told Heather du Plessis-Allan that they want to hear from people about the terms of reference.

Engagement will begin in February, with details soon to be announced by the Royal Commission.
