Niue requests passenger screening
New Zealand authorities will screen all passengers who are flying out of the country to Niue for influenza-type symptoms, at the request of the island's government.
Mr Ryall says public health staff at Auckland International Airport will monitor the 110 or so passengers who catch the weekly flight to Niue.
He says Niue's request follows a recent outbreak of influenza on the island.
