At the first reading, I made the point that while we support the bill, and its intentions are worthy, this bill lacks vision. In fact, we said in our minority view after the select committee process that it is a wasted opportunity. The fact that there are only 11 projects listed in Schedule 2 means that there was an opportunity here to create some legacy projects that would have ongoing economic benefit for New Zealand that had great vision, and instead we got 11 projects of, for the most part, relatively small scale. While in themselves not bad projects and we agree with them, where was the vision from this Government to create long-lasting projects with ongoing economic value that we can look back on and say that out of the ashes of COVID-19 this is what we were left with: some fantastic legacy projects.
