RACHEL BROOKING (Labour): Thank you, Mr Speaker, for an opportunity to talk on this third reading of the Incorporated Societies Bill. Now, as we've heard from many of the other speakers, this bill replaces the 1908 Act. I think it's important to acknowledge the importance of that 1908 Act in giving legal personhood to entities, these incorporated societies, so that they can continue on even when the membership of them changes. We've seen, and many other speeches have talked about, all the different incorporated societies within New Zealand. We've embraced the concept of incorporated societies, with about 24,000 of them. They cover a wide spectrum of things from arts groups, sports, charities, unions, marae—and even political parties we heard from Glen Bennett. So they're very important.
