A woman who campaigned to make pregnancy an MIQ priority category is delighted the High Court has found the MIQ lottery system that operated was flawed. Justice Mallon found the virtual lobby which operated as a lottery between September and December last year, infringed the rights of Kiwis to return to NZ with the criteria for emergency allocation narrow and too tightly set. Roshni Sami was pregnant last year when she and her husband went to court to fight for an emergency MIQ spot for him to be able to return from work in the United States for the birth. She told Nathan Rarere she was delighted with the court's findings.
