I want to acknowledge, first and foremost, why this is an important story, because it's not just a story for Pacific peoples; it is a New Zealand story. I want to acknowledge the Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern, my ministerial colleagues, all of my caucus, the Māori caucus, and, in particular, the Pasifika caucus, because it's been your support that has enabled this apology to take place. I want to say that in order to deliver an apology in a way that is meaningful and that is genuine and that can be accepted by those who were directly impacted, it was important that we used symbolism, culture, throughout the whole story, and there is symbolism from beginning to end. I used symbolism because it is one way in order to convey to those who were hurt directly to understand that we, the Government, and we, the members of Parliament, understand the trauma and the pain, first and foremost.
