JAN LOGIE (Green): Thank you, Mr Speaker. I'd like to start my contribution tonight with three quotes from submitters to the royal commission of abuse in State care. Firstly, "the taking of Māori children has been a cost that has been both intensely personal and inherently political. The presumed right to do so was derived from the same racist presumptions of European superiority that marked colonisation as a whole, and the attendant belief that indigenous children needed to be 'saved', 'civilised', and 'protected' from themselves." That quote, of course, came from the wonderful Moana Jackson. Then, Dr Alison Green: "The trauma we are carrying is killing us. I agreed to give evidence at this hearing because I want my whānau to have better lives, to be respected as the young people they are, and the elders they will be. Hardly a day goes by when I'm not reminded of the trauma we live." And then Keith Wiffin: "Nothing breaks my heart more, to see the continued appalling rates of abuse coming out of those homes and institutions today. The historical and the now are inextricably linked. We have not learned from the past."
