Davidson MaramaHon MARAMA DAVIDSON (Co-Leader—Green): Thank you Mr Speaker. If there is time I would like to stand as the Green Party MP on these bills and support them but we would not stop here. The Greens know that there are further levers that we can pull to make sure that we step up to the scale of the climate and inequality challenges that are facing all of us—every single one of us—here in Aotearoa.A lot of the debate today in this House on these bills has been focused on the cost of living. We have been clear that it is not actually just a cost of living crisis; this is an inequality crisis. When we talk about who pays there are people who are not going to the supermarket and who are having to use a calculator to make sure they stay within their budgets. There are people who are not having to worry about paying the mortgage or the rent and the power bill and the kai bill. There are people who are firmly secure and stable and have got more than they need to live a good life. Our economic and tax system has to change if we have any chance of raising the revenue that we absolutely need now but especially now into the future.The Greens support the $5 prescription fee being waived. I was in the Manurewa Southmall Pharmacy just last week hearing directly from chemists themselves making it really clear that they're having more pick-up because of the removal of the $5 barrier which is a lot for far too many people. That's a lot. They are actually having more of the prescriptions picked up because of that so we celebrate that.I know that it is important that in this bill it includes the work to start reducing energy bills for families. Right now families are having to choose to not turn their heaters on because it is too expensive to cover that plus the rent plus the kai and goodness knows whatever else comes up. We support all of these moves. There is also the transport being less expensive.We support all of what is in here as good important moves and changes but we can't tinker around the edges. The Greens would go far further to making sure everyone has access to a minimum income no matter what whether they are out of work or studying for example. We can actually increase the tax on wealth for those with more than enough and redistribute that back to for example 3.7 million New Zealanders who would benefit from the sorts of proposals that the Greens have been putting up right from the very start where everyone earning under $125000 would actually benefit and where those who can most afford it—without diminishing much of the quality of their lives at all—can actually help the Government raise the revenue that we need.We have to massively scale up our public affordable and community and Māori and Pacific housing. We can do that because it is a political choice not to. We have to end poverty not just see less of it. Our Greens proposals would actually end whānau and child poverty. If people are concerned about crime and community safety ending poverty and making sure people have warm affordable healthy homes would go most of the way to seeing intergenerational change. It is a political decision to not put those plans into place where we've got what we need. We have what we need to actually make those changes; we should just do them. I'm proud that the Green Party is continuing to build support because we are putting up the actual achievable policies that could actually ensure that we are meeting the climate challenges meeting the challenge of growing inequality.Over the past few years we have seen around the world the wealthiest—top not even 1 percent; even less than that—building ridiculous immoral wealth. No need for the build-up of that immoral wealth for such a few—literally a few in the context of the world. Here in New Zealand it is exactly the same. There is no need for that. We can redistribute that so that we can help Aotearoa. Kia ora.
