Inequality levels in this country have been getting worse every day. Hard-working Kiwis have been undermined, they have been forgotten: people like Shirley, people like Helen, people like Elizabeth—cleaners, security guards—people like Rosella, who's a caregiver. These people deserve better than this. This will make a difference in their lives and the lives of their loved ones. Let's tell them thank you for the good work that they have done for us last year and that they continue to do. The least we can say is thank you and allow them to stay home when they are sick or when their family members are sick—this is the least we can do for them. On that note, I commend this bill to the House.
