As we know, this bill, as it was considered by the select committee way back when, in some other Government, was really about moving the decision making away from local governments to the DHBs, because it was seen as a health issue. I'm pleased to hear that across the House there is support for this sentiment—and that hasn't changed with Supplementary Order Paper (SOP) 38, that's been tabled today—that this isn't a decision for councils to make. That is because, in part, local councils are very political organisations. They have a limited funding base, being their raters, who are also their voters, so it's often difficult for councils to make decisions that a large and vocal part of their communities may not be in favour of. That is despite the evidence that we've already heard from the Hon Dr Ayesha Verrall and that we've also heard from Shane Reti on the other side of the House.
