Hon ANDREW LITTLE: I can say that electoral law, like most justice legislation in this Parliament, has gone before a select committee that is equally divided, that is usually not capable of producing a majority decision. But, in any event, there are problems in our electoral law, sometimes identified by the Electoral Commission and other independent bodies, that it is proper for this Parliament to rectify and to correct. In the face of overwhelming findings by our High Court, our Court of Appeal, our Supreme Court, and our Waitangi Tribunal to say a law is manifestly unjust, it is incumbent on myself, as justice Minister, to bring that to the attention of Cabinet and the Government and, ultimately, to Parliament, which is what has happened, and that's where we've got the result we have now on this legislation.
