It is a huge honour for me to stand in the House today and present this speech for Ricardo Menéndez March, whose name this bill is in. Firstly, on his behalf and my own, I want to acknowledge former Green MP Mojo Mathers, who drafted this bill in 2015 after hearing from disabled people with disability assist dogs of the discrimination they faced. One of the stories that Mojo heard over five years ago now was the one from the late Murray Whittington and his dog, Frodo, who faced discrimination when looking for rentals. Murray spoke to the New Zealand Herald of his challenges, and we want to acknowledge him and the many others for sharing their stories and fighting for an accessible society.
