Over the last five years in the time I've spent here—it's been, in fact, over the last eight years—I've been deeply involved with the Inter-Parliamentary Union. The Inter-Parliamentary Union—the IPU—has membership from 179 countries. It, effectively, represents about 45,000 elected representatives all around the world, and as a contributor to the IPU, I was privileged—and, in fact, I'm the first New Zealander to be in this position. I was elected by the IPU as one member of a 10-member committee which investigates the abuses of elected representatives around the world. This legislation which I'm attempting to repeal today, which is in cohorts, or did put us in cohorts, with countries like Tanzania, countries like the Democratic Republic of Congo, countries like Zimbabwe, and countries like Venezuela, and I say to all members that as we debate this tonight, think about why you are in this Chamber. Come with your conscience. Respect discussion that occurs in your caucus, but, ultimately, come to a view and do not ever—ever—become controlled by your party leader.
