What I want to do now is reflect on some of the comments made in the debate on the 2018 Act as it passed through the House. The Hon Andrew Little made a number of comments which I believe are appropriate to reflect on as we consider this bill. He said, "Once the electorate has voted and established the proportionality of representation of Parliament, then it is not for individual members to undermine that proportional representation by political decisions or judgments that they choose to make. Public confidence is a vital underpinning in our democracy and for the benefit of the House." He spoke to the fact that "it's the voters who should determine the parties' share of seats in Parliament, and they do that with the party vote during [the] … election."
