In the time of today, this first reading, I've outlined the purpose of what a first reading is about. It is the introduction of the bill to the House for it to proceed to select committee, for further evidence, kōrero, to be shared, to be listened to, for the members of the Māori Affairs Committee, which I return to this House with the privilege to sit and reside there, to take that into full account as we bring the bill, your bill, back into the House for the second, and then into the third readings.
