JOSEPH MOONEY (National—Southland): Thank you, Mr Speaker. I rise to take a call on this final reading of the COVID-19 Response (Courts Safety) Legislation Bill, which will shortly pass into law as Labour have the majority. National does not support this bill. I note that I put it to the Minister of Justice yesterday in the committee of the whole House that this bill should really be called, among other things, the "Too Little, Too Late Act 2022". I note that the pandemic began, functionally in New Zealand—at least, we had our lockdown—in March of 2020; we are here in April 2022 talking about putting in place a bill called the COVID-19 Response (Courts Safety) Legislation. It begs the question: why did it take Labour two years to do so? It's ironic that we're having the final call of this bill on the day that the country has moved into the orange setting, and only yesterday, Australians were able to return to New Zealand—both positive things. But the question is: why are we here now and why are we talking about a COVID-19 Response (Courts Safety) Legislation Bill so long ago?
