GREG O'CONNOR (Labour—Ōhāriu): It gives me great pleasure to speak on the Maritime Transport (MARPOL Annex VI) Amendment Bill, which sounds something of a mouthful, but, like all these pieces of legislation, it's good to give it some context and to really understand what we're here for. Really, most New Zealanders are lucky enough to live near a harbour, near water. I know that Wellington Harbour—we all look out there, and I know I've been enjoying fishing out there on the odd occasion. And if you get an evening, say a March evening, there might be two or three cruise ships—in a non-COVID time, the cruise ships, of course—heading out of the harbour. You'll get the odd ferry coming in and out, fishing boats, you may even have a log ship. And, of course, because they're sitting out there on the water it's easy to forget just how much pollution is coming out or just what emissions are coming out of those boats—or ships, I should say: any maritime people listening would be disgusted to hear them described as boats; those ships. One of those cruise liners actually produces as many emissions as every car driving around Wellington in a day. That just puts things into perspective, which is exactly why we need to ensure that we're addressing such issues.
