The committee heard that standing for election is not a decision that affects men, women, and people with marginalised identities equally. This bill is for those who stand for election to local government, but it is also for those who don't; for those who had to put themselves and their whānau first because the risk associated with publishing their home address on a billboard was too much. I hope those people will think about standing again this year because local Government and democracy is for everyone. This bill keeps it that way. I commend this bill to the House.
