Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern - who was expected to attend the Big Gay Out event in Auckland - is headed to Wellington this afternoon for an emergency Cabinet meeting instead.
Who are the new cases?
The three new cases in the community are a mother, father and daughter from the same household in Papatoetoe.
The fourth member of the family has tested negative and remains at home under Public Health supervision.
The mother
She works for laundry and catering company LSG Skychefs, which services planes at the airport. She was last at work on 5 February when she was not believed to be infectious.
Her main duties at the company involved laundry duties.
There is no risk of her passing on the virus through laundry or food, the ministry has said.
When the mother developed symptoms, she and her daughter got tested.
The daughter
She is a year 9 student at Papatoetoe High School.
The school will be closed on Monday 15 February and Tuesday 16 February.
A testing facility is being set up at the school.
The father
He is a self-employed tradie. His positive result came in today and interviews are underway to identify his recent movements and who else needs to be tested.
What do their test results reveal?
Results from the genomic testing are expected late this evening and the ministry will provide an update on it on Monday.

Who needs to get tested?
At Papatoetoe High School, staff, parents and caregivers are being contacted about what they should do if they are close or casual contacts.
Director General of Health, Dr Ashley Bloomfield, said the student's classmates were considered close contacts, as were the teachers who taught her class.
He said people who were at indoor places of interest at the same time as the cases are asked to isolate at home and get tested and remain at home until they receive their results.
Those at outdoor places of interest are considered casual contacts and are to get tested if they develop symptoms.
