PAUL EAGLE (Labour—Rongotai): Tēnā koe e te Māngai o te Whare, and it's a privilege to talk on the Canterbury Regional Council (Ngāi Tahu Representation) Bill. Can I say a big thanks to Tāmati Coffey and the Māori Affairs Committee, where the former speaker and myself sit on that committee. We went through this process thoroughly in terms of getting this bill to the House. I wanted just to focus on three things this evening, and one is just a reflection on what's happening now in terms of their representation on there. Really, what we've heard today, and what the feedback will show you in black and white, is it's a reflection of what is happening now anyway. It's been through a very thorough process to say that this is the model that we want, and I'm a real fan of that, because all communities are different throughout Aotearoa New Zealand. What works, for example, on the Chatham Islands is obviously not going to work in Waitaha, in Canterbury, or in Tāmaki-makau-rau—Auckland. So you've got a whole range of mechanisms where democracy and how that works will take place, and what I like most is this is a local solution, where the locals have done something where they think it works locally, and therefore it is good.
