MATT DOOCEY (National—Waimakariri): Thank you, Madam Speaker. Tonight, we are debating the Policing (Killing a Police Dog) Amendment Bill. There are really only two positions in this debate. The first is that you believe the current penalty of two years for killing a police dog in the line of duty is sufficient, which is the status quo—and that is the Government's position—whereas on this side of the House, we wholeheartedly believe the penalty for killing a police dog should be increased to five years.
