I also said when this Parliament last met that the role of an Opposition was to give constructive criticism where necessary and helpful suggestions where possible, and the Government even took notice of some of the suggestions. No one was more astonished than me to see the words "safe not essential" go from an ACT Party newsletter to Government policy in just one month. I welcome the Government adopting my suggestion of an MP pay cut—Grant, I know you read it—and I will seek leave to introduce a bill to that effect at the end of this speech. The nation's hunters were pleased to see the original ban on hunting walked back, even if only for private land, and issuing a proper section 70 notice so the legal rights of New Zealanders were in writing was the right thing to do, after the Epidemic Response Committee asked for it.
