Hon JAMES SHAW (Minister for Climate Change): I rise to confirm the Green Party's support for this imprest supply bill. It can be comforting to believe that big history is something that happens to other people in other places. You read about it in books, but you assume that it doesn't happen to you. We're very comfortable studying about the past in the abstract, but events in recent weeks, I think, have given us a chance to reflect anew on those blurry photos in textbooks and consider the role that we have here in shaping how future generations of New Zealanders will view the events which we are participating in today.
