The House knows very well that I am a New Zealander of Filipino descent. I represent a community of first generation migrants. And due to the migration settings in the past decade or so, when Filipino skilled migrants arrived in New Zealand and doubled in number, the immigration settings had Filipinos arriving with young children, children in their teens, and young adults. The relevance of these facts goes to the probability that when a young person comes seeking an abortion, the request is made out of a desire to keep her pregnancy secret. This desire is based on many, many factors, but most likely on the basis that the father is absolutely absent or is coercive towards that point. There is also, in our culture especially, that feeling of shame or desire not to cause distress to her parents and extended family.
