INGRID LEARY (Labour—Taieri): I find it quite incredible that Te Paati Māori has chosen not to speak on the long-term fiscal position. I'm happy to do so in relation to Māori health, because if there's any party that should be speaking on Māori health I think it's the Māori Party. Māori have been side-lined and excluded for decades and they have the worst wellbeing outcomes in New Zealand. We all know the statistics. They've got significant lower life expectancy and significantly higher rates of chronic and infectious diseases, injuries, and suicide. The report acknowledges that if we think COVID has been difficult, the challenges that we're going to face around some of these things like health, like an ageing population, and like climate change are going to make COVID look like a walk in the park. It highlights the importance of planning.
