Hon NANAIA MAHUTA: I believe that all communities should benefit from this reform. Every New Zealander, irrespective of where they live, should be able to drink water safely from the tap. It is unacceptable to have sewer pipes bursting on city streets and sewage seeping into our waterways. It's intolerable that there are communities like Te Kao in New Zealand that do not have potable water supplies and are still on a regular boiled water notice. That is why the Government is working to address the challenges facing these critical services and the communities that currently fund and use them.
