Dr ELIZABETH KEREKERE (Green): Tēnā koe. Fluoridation is a hotly debated topic in our party. We support the provision to improve oral health of, particularly, marginalised communities, as long as people can opt out. We agree with having a national and consistent approach that reduces inequalities, so we do support this bill and are pleased to see it specified that councils are required to provide access to non-fluoridated water.
