It's my great honour to be a Green Party voice in support of this third reading. This bill has been at least 15 years in the making. From the public outrage in response to the treatment of Louise Nicholas, and then we had in 2007 the two-year Taskforce for Action on Sexual Violence, an in-depth academic review of the problems and solutions, many more discrete academic papers, surveys of court participants, sexual violence survivors, a petition of over 100,000 New Zealanders, attrition data, two Law Commission reports, even a trial of some of the controversial aspects of this bill in our specialist courts, two positive New Zealand Bill of Rights Act vets, a select committee inquiry, a Chief Victims Advisor's report, decades of overseas experience—all supporting the changes in this bill. I have honestly never seen such a strong evidence base for a piece of legislation. All of these reports told us we are actively now re-traumatising victims in the court process and that the processes that are being used do not encourage good evidence, and cases are not being tested on the law, and that we can do better without undermining anybody's right to a fair trial. There have been so many opportunities since 2007 for this law change, but none of that evidence or the voices of survivors were enough to convince a Government to do anything but tinker, deny, or delay. So today is big, and I want to thank the hundreds of advocates and survivors who have persisted all these years.
