I have been around and spoken to many, many small businesses in my electorate—and I'm sure colleagues in this House have done the same—and I've heard stories, for example, of many business owners I've spoken to where they have fought incredibly hard over the last two years to keep the doors open and keep their people in jobs. I have talked to business owners who have taken out mortgages on their family home, taken out second mortgages—and in some cases, even third mortgages—just to keep their staff employed; keep their business operating in the hope that they will have a future. We should not be placing more burden on these small businesses now, at a time when they are doing everything they can do survive and keep their people employed. That is why this Matariki bill coming in as an additional public holiday is the wrong step at the wrong time—despite noting that we do support Matariki and what it represents wholeheartedly.
