Hon SCOTT SIMPSON (National—Coromandel): Thank you, Madam Speaker. I rise on behalf of the National Party in this first reading debate on the Maritime Powers Bill. As has already been indicated by a couple of my colleagues earlier in the debate, the National Party will support this bill, at least to select committee, so that it can undergo the benefit of select committee scrutiny, receive submissions, and have the benefit of a parliamentary process. But, in doing so, there are a number of issues that we, on this side of the House, have with this bill and matters that we will want to tease out at select committee and that we will want to hear from submitters on, and they relate particularly to issues surrounding civil liberties.
