And what a community Mana is, now in the hands of my friend, the amazing and talented Barbara Edmonds, who has a long future in that seat, and I am sure she will make a massive contribution to the country during her tenure. From Linden, in the south, encompassing all of Porirua, and stretching north to take in the southern part of Kāpiti, I was honoured to spend 10 years representing the people of Mana. I love and miss seeing those people on a daily basis.
