Dr JAMES McDOWALL (ACT): Thank you, Madam Speaker. It is a pleasure to rise this evening on behalf of ACT to speak on this bill. So the purpose of this bill, according to the text here, says, "The purpose of this Act is to improve the effectiveness and accountability of the Public Service by requiring their communications to be clear and accessible to the public." Well, that sounds like a great idea. I think we probably needed that on 4 October when the Prime Minister announced the Government's phased approach to reducing alert levels in Auckland, which is apparently going to give way to a traffic light system anyway. So you never know, actually, this bill could do some damage—it could be a problem for the Government, especially as the wheels of the well-oiled PR machine slowly start to fall off. I also can't quite tell if this is a good or a bad thing for taxpayers in the long run, with Labour spending something like $300 million since 2017 on spin doctors. They might even need more with this, so a little bit of a worry there.
