Hon CLARE CURRAN (Labour—Dunedin South): Thank you, Mr Speaker. Can I just apologise to the people of New Zealand who are listening to this debate this afternoon for the appalling lack of quality of the speeches coming from the National Party. Can I just remind the House and inform the public that the essence of this debate is about a piece of legislation that will enfranchise more New Zealanders to vote at the next election because they will be able to enrol and vote on election day, which the National Party heartily disagrees with. They have obfuscated and deflected, told us fake stories all afternoon, and it's, quite frankly, been pretty appalling.
