As we stand here in Wellington where you can walk anywhere because, as The Mutton Birds put it, "Nowhere's very far," it might be hard to remember that in other parts of New Zealand we have long and winding roads, and they are dirt roads, our settlements are small and diverse and we have, in my beloved Te Tai Tokerau, marae spread out across the motu. And we have had an issue with digital connectivity. But this bill amends both the Maori Trust Boards Act 1955 to allow electronic ballots for board elections and it also amends Te Ture Whenua Maori Act 1993 to give provision for meetings of owners of land to be held electronically. And this is really important because this Government in 2019 made a $21 million investment into digital connectivity for those far-flung marae. And that is going to mean that the people of those marae are able to participate, to make decisions about their whenua, electronically as they should be able to do without traversing those long and winding roads. I am proud to commend this bill to the House.
