It is an honour and a privilege to stand here amongst representatives of the House, true representatives of Aotearoa New Zealand, who reflect the diverse and vibrant communities that we serve. I am privileged to work alongside those who honour and value our shared heritage, those who remember our history, and those who look to a brighter future for our families. I acknowledge the tangata whenua o Aotearoa; our Governor-General, the Rt Hon Dame Patsy Reddy; also our great Prime Minister, the Rt Hon Jacinda Ardern; and also further congratulate you, Mr Speaker, on your re-election in the House.
