There is much to do, but I want to leave my final words as words of thanks to the commission for its enormous work. I can do no better than summarise the path ahead than using their own words: "We accept political engagement on these issues will not be easy. But facing up to the hard issues and having open public conversations are critical. … We hope our report will encourage members of the public, officials and politicians to engage in frank debate so that everyone understands their roles and responsibilities in keeping New Zealand safe, secure and cohesive. There is impetus for debate around the kind of country New Zealand aspires to be."
