The very last point I want to make is this: of course, I'm a proud member of the National Party and I respect that members are loyal members of other political parties, but at the core of this bill is this: our first duty is not to the political party that we represent, but to the people of New Zealand and this wonderful country that we are here to represent. I plea to this House to reconsider, because this bill is fundamental to the rights of this Parliament and to our democracy.
