Hon SCOTT SIMPSON (National—Coromandel): Thank you, Mr Speaker. It's a pleasure to take a call in the second reading of the Resource Management (Enabling Housing Supply and Other Matters) Amendment Bill. I want to endorse the previous speakers on both sides of the House so far in this debate for their informed and articulate contributions to this second reading debate, because this is something of significance in terms of a bipartisan approach to solving the housing dilemma that has been confronting our country now for far too many years and, if we are not careful as parliamentarians, it will continue to confront us and future generations for years to come.
