Hon JACQUI DEAN (National—Waitaki): Thank you, Madam Speaker. We didn't make that easy for the Chair, did we, but anyway, I'm on my feet now. Look, thank you to the members who have spoken in the debate, both this evening and at the first part of the first reading. This bill is quite simple, and that has been identified by my colleagues Lawrence Yule and Denise Lee. Lawrence outlined that this bill came as a result of a considerable amount of work that was undertaken in 2015-2016 by a group of New Zealanders who consulted widely about what were the aspects of red tape that could be improved in people's interaction with local government, with their regulatory functions and their public services. So this is the genesis of this bill.
