Mr Speaker, thank you for this honour to be able to speak to this redress bill, the joint redress bill, Te Rohe o Rongokako Joint Redress Bill. It's been some journey to get here, and I'm a real fan of today, because it is the first reading. I want to acknowledge the members of the three iwi and those representatives who are here today, sitting with us here in te Whare Pāremata, our Parliament, to experience this process, which gives effect to certain parts of the deed of settlement, signed by the Crown and the iwi in August 2016 and, I'll just add, Ngāti Kahungunu ki Wairarapa Tāmaki Nui-a-Rua and the Crown in October last year. So it has taken some time, but we're here now, and I want to acknowledge those with us but also those who are no longer with us who have been part of this process.
