I had the privilege of participating as a member of the National Party's representation on the Epidemic Response Committee twice in my capacity as our seniors spokesperson. I was hugely impressed by the way it operated. I was hugely impressed by the chairmanship of the Hon Simon Bridges and the way in which members listened respectfully not only to one another but, in particular, to those who came to put their views before the committee—and, of course, in almost every case, they were doing so by Zoom because they couldn't enter this building.
