Hon PAUL GOLDSMITH (National): Thank you, Madam Chair, and it's my pleasure to speak in this debate. So this legislation that's been introduced in this House in a hurried fashion, like most of the legislation by this Government in recent times, is wanting to extend for two years extraordinary powers given to the Minister of Immigration to deal with immigration matters made more complicated by the crisis that we face with COVID-19, and the point of this Opposition is to say that, yes, we agree that those powers are necessary at this time, but we do not agree that it needs to be for two years before we come back and revisit this. We think that one year is sufficient time for those powers to be extended and that the Minister should trouble himself, and his ministry should trouble itself, to come back to Parliament in a timely fashion to allow the people of New Zealand to consider this properly and to have a normal submission process.
