DAVID SEYMOUR: I am outlining why it is so important that we do not shorten the time for submissions by the public. Now, if that is not in line with this motion to shorten the time the public has to submit on a bill, then I'm not sure what it is that we can debate about on a motion such as this. I'm illustrating that with examples of the sacrifices New Zealanders make to come and submit that they may not be able to if this motion passes. I'm not sure how else it is that I can address the motion.
