Mike Moore was the MP for Christchurch North for 18 years, and I want to put on record that he was so highly respected by the Christchurch community in the role that he took. I was for six of those years the National Party's electorate chairman in Christchurch North. We were constantly aware that we were opposing a man who was deeply revered and respected by the citizens of that particular electorate. I didn't come to know him particularly well, but when I came into Parliament in 1996, he was more than generous in giving advice about how one should conduct oneself in the parliamentary environment, and he was, of course—as we have heard said so often today—a great parliamentarian.
