I'm looking forward to the Social Services and Community Committee considering this bill and hearing submissions on it. I believe it is important that the committee takes more time to do this to ensure that we get it right. That's why I will move a motion later in this debate to ask the committee to report back in May next year. It is not often that a longer select committee time frame is sought, but I believe it is the right thing to do to ensure that everyone can have their say. It is really important that select committees are accessible and inclusive and responsive to the needs of the disability community. I will be sending suggestions to the committee on ways in which the process can be made mana-enhancing, that ensures that disabled people, tāngata whaikaha Māori, and their communities can share their views and feed into the development of the bill in ways that work for them. It is disappointing to hear that some parties will not be supporting this bill to the select committee stage, a place where we can hear from the community and make better law. None the less, it is still my hope that we will have a productive cross-party contribution made at this committee.
