It's not usual that I would begin a committee stage of a bill with a karakia, but given the debate that preceded this particular matter, I thought it was apt, because we have a very significant milestone moment. I'm not going to take a long call, because the second reading of the bill highlighted the substantial work that the Māori Affairs Committee did to go thoroughly through the aspects of the bill, and I want to thank them for their work, as well as Te Puni Kōkiri officials who advised and the clerks of the committee.
