Hon DAVID PARKER (Attorney-General): Thank you, Mr Speaker. Can I also thank the member Louisa Wall for bringing this bill to the House and thank the National Party spokesperson for women, Nicola Grigg, for her contribution. I was at secondary school in the 1970s, when these events were very, very fraught. I was educated at a time when not only was abortion a fraught issue but so was contraception education—in fact, I was at school at a time when we couldn't be taught about contraception. I, luckily, lived in a household where my mother was active in the Abortion Law Reform Association of New Zealand, and I'm well-grounded in these issues. I believe it is a woman's right to choose as to whether she has a child or whether she terminates a pregnancy. I am pro-abortion; I have been all of my adult life. I was one of the first people in the Labour Party—actually, it was a time when I was unsuccessfully standing for the leadership of the party—to publicly advocate for the removal of criminal sanctions on abortion in the Crimes Act. I mention all of these things because I don't want to be positioned as anti-abortion. But I do want to say that, whilst I'm supporting this bill at first reading, I do think there is a proper question to be asked as to whether the provisions of this bill go too far in their limitations on freedom of expression.
