Hon TODD McCLAY (National—Rotorua): Madam Speaker, thank you very much. In the second reading of this bill, the Labour Party is now one step closer to delivering on an election promise, which is to increase costs upon business by $2.8 billion a year. We've heard other speakers in the debate so far from the other side—indeed the Minister—talk about productivity gains, but you don't increase productivity in an economy or in a business by imposing costs upon that business. You do so by reducing red tape and regulation and allowing those businesses to get on with what it is the economy needs them to do—run their businesses well, create profits through productivity and competitiveness, and, of course, look after their employees and pay them more.
