CHRIS BISHOP: That hasn't happened to me since year 9 debating! But in the spirit of what is, I think, soon going to come, I think that a more appropriate title for this bill would be the "COVID-19 Response (Retrospective Property Law Amendment) Legislation Bill 2021", because what we have before us is a bill that seeks to retrospectively interfere in the sanctity of contract, and contracts signed in good faith by landlords and tenants, and seeks to reverse what the legal position was at that time, for reasons that have never been explicitly or convincingly articulated by the Government. In fact, about the best that the Minister has managed to do so far is that there's been anecdotal feedback that this would be a good idea. That's it—anecdata, basically. Kris Faafoi, who I've got a lot of time for—he's a great guy. He's not a bad medium-fast bowler in the parliamentary cricket team. He's a good guy. Everyone likes "Faafs"; he's a great guy. But, I'm sorry, running into some people in the Koru lounge and having a glass of orange juice over the socially distanced Air New Zealand buffet is not a good enough reason to retrospectively interfere in the sanctity of contract. It's not. It's just simply not.
