Hon PEENI HENARE: Together with our partners, New Zealand has helped to establish the conditions for the current intra-Afghan peace process. We've supported regional security and helped to improve the lives of the people of Afghanistan, particularly in the Bamian province. Through our most recent deployment, New Zealand has contributed to training and mentoring a new generation of officers in the Afghanistan army since 2013. This has been a joint effort alongside the United Kingdom, Denmark, and previously Australia and Norway. The Defence Force has also contributed to women, peace, and security initiatives in Afghanistan. Between 2003 and 2013, the NZDF-led Provincial Reconstruction Team and the New Zealand Aid Programme - funded projects have left a lasting positive impact on the Bamian province through tangible governance, development, and security support.
