BARBARA KURIGER (National—Taranaki - King Country): Thank you, Madam Speaker. I would say that this is a bill which the time has come for, and it's a bill that's been quite a while in the making. I do want to commend the Minister of Agriculture, Damien O'Connor, for bringing it to the House, but I would also like to make mention of the Hon David Bennett, who started the process when he was a Minister.
