LEMAUGA LYDIA SOSENE (Labour): Mr Speaker, thank you for the opportunity and kia orana. I'll take a short call on the bill. I support this bill, particularly because it talks about a range of topics and covers representation. In my previous working life, I worked over a decade for Auckland Council as an elected member, and I know the value of Māori wards and Māori representation that the current legislation does not cover. So, on that note, I commend this bill to the House.
