Hon NANAIA MAHUTA (Minister of Foreign Affairs): Fa'afetai lava, Mr Speaker. Let me start by acknowledging Samoan Language Week in this the 60th year since Samoa's independence. I can assure the member we are continuing our already deep relationship with the Pacific. In the first term of our Government's tenure my predecessor initiated the Pacific Reset. We are ramping up our focus on resilience priorities, because the compounding impacts of COVID-19 and climate change require a renewed emphasis of Pacific-led solutions. New Zealand will be a consistent, trusted, and reliable partner in the way we seek to ensure that the approach has bilateral and regional benefits, better coordinated multilateral support for Pacific development and climate change challenges, and builds regional peace, prosperity, and stability. That is why we respect a Pacific-led agenda that has regional benefits.
