We are looking forward to consideration of this bill at select committee, and I encourage our takatāpui community to make submissions and ensure your voices are heard in the process. It is important that we make sure the wording of the legislation is right and that provisions are strong enough to keep our people safe. The successful passage of this bill through the House will put us one step closer to an Aotearoa hō where all of us—tangata whenua, tanga Tiriti, and tangata moana—feel empowered and liberated to be who we truly are.
