I am proud to live in a country that doesn't shy away from compassionate, fair, and progressive legislation for women. From being the first in the world to enable women to vote—from, also, our world-leading equal pay legislation—to removing abortion from the Crimes Act, we have a proud history of fairness and equity for women. The passing of this bill shows that once again, New Zealand is leading the way for women, becoming only the second country in the world, as far as I'm aware of, to provide leave for miscarriage and for stillbirth. Coverage of this bill when it was first done at first reading went global as other countries looked to us as a world leader, an example of legislation that explicitly recognised the grief that comes with miscarriage or stillbirth. I can only hope that while we may be one of the first, we will not be one of the last, and that other countries will also begin to legislate for a compassionate and fair leave system that recognises the pain and the grief that comes from miscarriage and stillbirth.
