Hon TIM MACINDOE (National—Hamilton West): Thank you, Madam Speaker. I'm delighted to take a call on this bill and to express my wholehearted support for it. Could I acknowledge the bill's sponsor, the fine young man on my right at the moment, the member for Clutha-Southland. I think he's been here for 12 minutes, and he's had two members' bills pulled in that time. I've been here for 12 years, and I'm still waiting. So I must admit I am jealous, but I really want to endorse this bill. I believe it covers a very serious issue, and I'm disappointed to hear the member who's just resumed her seat, Clare Curran, suggest that the reason for opposing it is that the work hasn't been done, and I hope I'll be able to dispel that. In fact, that was an argument that was also raised by the New Zealand First speaker more than three months ago now, this debate having been interrupted because of the COVID lockdown. It's probably a good idea if I do reiterate some of the key points for the bill, because I think it's really important. I'm very sorry that I'm no longer a member of the Justice Committee that would get to hear the bill if it attracted the support of the other parties.
