Clark DavidHon Dr DAVID CLARK (Labour—Dunedin): Thank you Mr Speaker. This is a good day. I want to track back right to the beginning of this legislation and think about the market study that kicked us off: the market study that was supported by the Labour Government in order to really get to the bottom of competition issues in this country. I want to acknowledge the Commerce Commission for their work Anna Rawlings and our current Chair of the Commerce Commission John Small for the analysis that led to the actions that this Government is taking. They have made a real difference through their work under quite a lot of time pressure and through some robust conversations with the sector and some extraordinarily good analysis.I want to also acknowledge the effect of the market studies on the actual behaviour of the sector. We saw before this legislation went through the acceptance of unit pricing the acceptance of a Grocery Commissioner and the acceptance of a grocery code. We saw price freezes in the sector and we've seen what scrutiny in the sector can provide. I anticipate that that appointment of a Grocery Commissioner at the appropriate time will see future developments in the sector as the sector understands what it means to be watched to be scrutinised and to see real competition in the marketplace.I want to congratulate the Hon Dr Duncan Webb and his team and all of the excellent officials who have worked on this bill because they have done some superb work. Those officials—they were excellent. When I had the privilege of leading this bill to the House they were superb they were robust and they were thoughtful. We disagreed on some things but we worked hard to find solutions that would be in the interests of New Zealanders and we got there. As a Government we decided that we would accept the majority of the Commerce Commission's findings. We disagreed with them on a couple. We think that a regulatory backstop is actually what's needed to make the difference in the market and we had acknowledgments from the sector subsequently that that actually is the thing that will make a difference. We also wanted to see more regular reporting through from the Grocery Commission because we think New Zealanders deserve to know what's going on in that sector and deserve to understand how competition is improving.I want to then also just briefly acknowledge some of the people who worked very directly on this bill in its preparatory phases. I want to acknowledge Jonathan Gee Sam Farrell and Melissa Turner in my office who worked very long hours to make this the best bill it could be. I want to acknowledge Katherine Rich Jon Duffy and Tex Edwards. I actually want to acknowledge also the duopoly leaders Chris Quin and Spencer Sonn for the conversations—the grown-up conversations that we had to have along the way. The likes of Matt Lane as well The Warehouse Supie Circle K—actually everybody who contributed through the select committee process to make sure this is the best bill that it can be. It is world-leading. It will ensure that New Zealanders pay a fair price at the supermarket and I wish all of those who are involved now in implementing it the very best. This is a Government that is concerned about the bread and butter issues for New Zealanders and I'm very proud to have played a part in developing this legislation.
