Hon MAGGIE BARRY (National—North Shore): Thank you, Madam Speaker. I rise to speak at the second reading of the Support Workers (Pay Equity) Settlements Amendment Bill. It is a bill that's taken a long time to get to where it needed to go. As the previous speaker, Mark Patterson, has already named her—and others have mentioned her as well—Kristine Bartlett CNZM: every now and again in this House we come across legislation that has been advanced enormously through the experience and the dedication of one individual. So I would begin my short call by commending her on her tenacity.
