Official figures show 32 people breached Covid-19 isolation rules during a 58-day period between April and June.
Nobody was charged and all were dealt with via warnings and education.
The breaches happened between April 17 and June 14, for either absconding, failing to return, or trying to flee the managed isolation facilities.
Half of the breaches were people who failed to return or were late to return after being granted an exemption to attend a funeral or tangi.
