To begin, I acknowledge Rangi, you were the helmsman for the initiative, steering us of the Government through this issue. Your knowledge, the depth, the breadth of your skills, and the knowledge on this subject that is Matariki is unparalleled. I was very saddened to hear the belittling remarks of the Opposition about this initiative. They think this is just a holiday, but for us, for all of us it is a big issue, a celebration of the Māori World, of our important ancestors, our customary practices, those things that the Opposition cannot measure under their philosophy. Therefore, I acknowledge you, Rangi, and I acknowledge the group that worked with you, those such as Rereata, Hoturoa, Jack, Pauline, Victoria, Ruakere, those experts from the Māori World in these fields. From that was produced some beautiful work. I heard one of the Opposition yawning at you while I was speaking. That is one feature of the degrading behaviour of the Opposition towards this issue.
