Hon CHRIS HIPKINS: —exactly—is to confirm by an Act of Parliament regulations that would otherwise lapse at a particular date, and we do that under the Legislation Act of 2019. The second reading debate that we're doing now is the only opportunity that the House as a whole has to scrutinise and debate the provisions of the Subordinate Legislation Confirmation Bill. The first reading is done without debate; it then goes to a select committee. The second reading debate happens after the select committee, and then straight after this we will do the third reading, which is also taken without debate. The House does need to pass this bill, as it always does, before we adjourn for the Christmas holidays. Any levies and duties that have been paid under any of the regulations that we are confirming that are not confirmed by the due date would potentially have to be returned to those who had paid them.
