The second issue with this bill is that it requires a significant workforce in order to implement the proposed mandatory language learning. This workforce currently does not exist in New Zealand. So even if the funding did exist, the workforce does not exist to deliver this bill. This is in part due to teacher shortages that occurred under the previous National Government, and we in this Labour Government have been investing in teacher training and we are seeing the numbers of teachers increase, actually. However, for this bill to be implemented, we would need many, many more teachers.
