DEBBIE NGAREWA-PACKER (Co-Leader—Te Paati Māori) (remote): Kia ora e te Pīka. Tēnā tātou e te Whare. I rise on behalf of Te Paati Māori to speak to the third reading of the Three Strikes Legislation Repeal Bill—or, as the National Party call it, the "Three Strikes (Unless You Want to Go to Kings College) Legislation Repeal Bill." Hoi anō , three strikes might make sense in baseball, but our criminal justice system is not a game. However, when you treat politics like an American sport, it's easy to see how National and ACT could confuse the two. We too disagree with violence and bullying, and the three-strikes law bound the hands of the judiciary with the implicit purpose of locking up more Māori for potentially low level crimes—modelled on the US law with targeted black Americans. It has made our racist justice system even more racist, and even less considerate of tikanga Māori. The repeal of this mean-spirited, archaic, and ineffective piece of legislation is long overdue, and Te Paati Māori hopes that this also signals a move to a more transformative system of justice and reform.
