JOSEPH MOONEY (National—Southland): It's a real privilege to rise today to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Māori Affairs Committee, which was formed on 5 October 1871. At that time it was called the Native Affairs Committee and later became known as the Māori Affairs Committee, and was created by the House of Representatives. It's a real honour to be here in the House of Representatives this afternoon, commemorating it on what is also the day the guns fell silent at the end of the First World War on 11 November 2018. I heard from my colleague Simon Bridges as well and I join him in congratulating Ngāti Maniapoto and Minister Little on signing a deed of settlement today—that's a great, momentous occasion as well.
