Being a young person means that we are the bearers of the decisions made today into the future. As this House makes laws to navigate through one of the biggest economic challenges in our lifetime, I want to bring new ideas to the table. I see the recovery period as being a unique opportunity to redefine our economy—build it up to be stronger and more resilient than before. I believe that high tech but green tech will lead us into economic prosperity. I believe this time the world is looking for inspiration and we need to push bolder policies that support these industries by attracting innovative firms to our shores, encouraging Kiwis to really think outside the box, and giving them practical tools to do it. Although we are a small country, we can influence. I hope this House never forgets that power.
