DEBBIE NGAREWA-PACKER (Co-Leader—Te Paati Māori): Tēnā tātou e te Whare. It's a pleasure to rise on behalf of Te Paati Māori to speak to the third reading of the te Pae Ora (Healthy Futures) Bill. As health spokesperson, it's been revealing, following this bill as it has progressed through the House. I want to begin by acknowledging the significance of this day for tangata w'enua in Aotearoa. Our people have never had a place to stand with the health system. Generations of Māori have faced institutional racism and systemic barriers that have led to persistent inequities and entrenched health disparities for tangata w'enua. The real impact of this is devastating. We're dying young from cancers, from third-world diseases, but worst of all from neglect from indifference, from racist policies and racist people, and ignorance. Our people die on average at least seven years younger than non-Māori.
