Dr DEBORAH RUSSELL (Labour—New Lynn): I'd like to just offer a few remarks on this bill as it goes through its final reading in the House. I just want to address one thing right from the start, and, actually, it always is about getting it right from the start—just something to refer to in the speech of the previous speaker, Andrew Bayly. It was a reference to broken homes, and I guess it's a bit of language I would like to move away from. The way we understand families has changed. Families form and reform. Children live in different structures to previously; it's just our ways of living have changed. It doesn't mean anything is broken; it's just changed. What has not changed is the need for children to be supported by their parents.
