Dr DEBORAH RUSSELL (Labour—New Lynn): This is a very narrow and very technical bill, but it is brought about because of a substantial change that this Government has made today, a change that sets right the disastrous impact of the "mother of all Budgets" from 30 years ago. Today, we have increased benefit rates. Why? Because it looks after the most vulnerable New Zealanders, because it addresses the key challenges of child poverty in our country.
