I'm really pleased to take a call on behalf of the Green Party on the third reading of the Canterbury Regional Council (Ngāi Tahu Representation) Bill. Can I congratulate the bill's sponsor, Rino Tirikatene, for his work in shepherding it through Parliament, and can I acknowledge the very strong presence in the Speaker's gallery of Ngāi Tahu whānui, representatives of the Papatipu Rūnanga, and the rangatira and New Zealander of the Year Tā Tīpene O'Regan. Can I also acknowledge the chair of Environment Canterbury, Jenny Hughey; the Tumu Taiao, Iaean Cranwell and Yvette Couch-Lewis; and the delegation of councillors from Environment Canterbury; and support staff from both Te Rūnanga o Ngāi Tahu and Environment Canterbury.
