The government’s 2024 Early Childhood Education (ECE) Regulatory Sector Review included a recommendation to repeal the Health (Immunisation) Regulations 1995. The Ministry of Health provided advice on the proposed repeal through the Regulatory Impact Statement below. The Health Regulations required ECEs and primary schools to maintain registers of enrolled children’s immunisation status. These registers are no longer needed as the Aotearoa Immunisation Register has replaced their function.
