As I've said in the House before, when I rise to speak on a matter that I am conversant with, I will always attempt to relate or co-relate that back to persons who give service. I wish to acknowledge the recent appointment of now Justice Layne Harvey, who has presided as a Māori Land Court judge for the last 19 years and, of course, knows full well the impact of the Remuneration Authority and the setting of the pay scale and rates. But it's appropriate that I acknowledge him for his ascension to the High Court to join Justice Christian Whata, and I mention both of them specifically as they were former student peers when we were at Auckland Law School.
