Hon LOUISE UPSTON (National—Taupō): Thank you, Mr Speaker. So, for those who are watching this debate on the Appropriation (2021/22 Estimates) Bill and the second imprest supply bill, yes, this is about money, it's about Budget, and it's about priorities. It's about the Government's priorities, and, unfortunately, what the current lockdown has clearly shown is how woefully unprepared the Government has been. With low rates of vaccination, its own advisers saying lockdowns were inevitable makes the situation worse, and it makes it even worse that this Government hasn't prioritised the preparation and the avoidance of such lockdowns. Even three days ago, the Minister for Social Development and Employment has said on Māori TV that the Government wasn't ready for this outbreak.
