Now, it's clear that New Zealand is about to face a very uncertain energy future. Many of this Government's policies have been announced on the hoof, potentially by mistake, later backside-covering exercises involving working groups to try to justify decisions taken on the hoof. It seems unreasonable—given all of the risks raised by the shipping industry, by the fuel suppliers, by the refinery, even by the International Energy Agency (IEA) that pointed out New Zealand is woefully short of the strategic petroleum reserves that the IEA requires its member countries to have, those 90 days of storage that New Zealand doesn't have—that all we are currently holding are IOUs that we might go begging around the world for a few ships to come and save us in the event that we face a supply problem here in New Zealand. It's not acceptable to refer this bill to select committee for a shortened period of submission and consideration when all of these risks are coming through this very narrow point at one time and the solutions for them—while they might be available, are not available soon, and they're not available without cost.
