JAMIE STRANGE (Labour—Hamilton East): Thank you, Mr Speaker. I appreciate the opportunity to take a call on this bill. This is my first speech in the House for four weeks, and it seems like, since I was here, nothing's changed, in terms of the National Party seeming to be completely out of touch with the average New Zealander. I am very surprised the National Party are not supporting this bill to the select committee. I understand that they have some issues with this bill, and they have highlighted those issues, but when I talk to people on the street, when I talk to people in my electorate about electric vehicles, about climate change, the overwhelming majority would like to purchase an electric vehicle, but there are some barriers. This bill starts to address that issue.
