Hon NANAIA MAHUTA: I'm really disappointed that the Opposition continues to talk down the important relationship that we have with the Pacific, because I have indicated that I will be attending the Pacific Islands Forum in person. As soon as borders opened in Fiji, I went there, Minister Henare went there, and Minister Sio is currently there. We continue to engage with the Pacific on virtual platforms. I met with the Deputy Prime Minister of Tuvalu when he was here, and also the Prime Minister of Cook Islands when he was here and the Foreign Minister of Tonga when she was here, as have other ministerial colleagues who have met with a range of ministerial counterparts from the Pacific. I'm disappointed that that member continues to choose to talk down the important relationship that we have with the Pacific. It is valued. It is important. We continue to engage in our enduring relationship with Pacific nations.
