3. Land Transfer (Foreign Ownership of Land Register) Amendment Bill—Consistency with New Zealand Bill of Rights Act 1990DENIS O'ROURKE (NZ First) to the Member in charge of the Land Transfer (Foreign Ownership of Land Register) Amendment BillLand Transfer (Foreign Ownership of Land Register) Amendment Bill—Consistency with New Zealand Bill of Rights Act 19903. DENIS O'ROURKE (NZ First) to the Member in charge of the Land Transfer (Foreign Ownership of Land Register) Amendment Bill: Does he believe the Land Transfer (Foreign Ownership of Land Register) Amendment Bill breaches the New Zealand Bill of Rights Act 1990 as the Attorney-General contends?Rt Hon WINSTON PETERS (Member in charge of the Land Transfer (Foreign Ownership of Land Register) Amendment Bill): That is a marvellous question. The Attorney-General has perfected the ultracrepidarian art.Hon Member: What?Rt Hon WINSTON PETERS: I knew you would say What?" because you have got to be educated to understand this.Hon Gerry Brownlee: I raise a point of order Mr Speaker. [Interruption] Mr SPEAKER: Order! I have a point of order—the Hon Gerry Brownlee.Hon Gerry Brownlee: That was a very unnecessary comment from Mr Peters. He was asked whether he could clarify what he was saying because he was mumbling.Mr SPEAKER: Order! [Interruption] Order! If the member is having difficulty hearing—[Interruption] Order! If the member is having difficulty hearing then I suggest he moves closer for the rest of this question so he can clearly decipher—[Interruption] I must say I am finding it a little difficult myself but I am putting it down to the background noise from some interjections. I invite the member because we have now lost the continuity to repeat the answer to the question.Rt Hon WINSTON PETERS: The Attorney-General has perfected the ultracrepidarian art. His arguments are blurb-iated balderdash of the first order. How could foreign owners and buyers providing their name country of origin and the value of land purchased in a publicly accessibly database breach privacy when anyone can pay a fee to the foreign owners of Quotable Value and get most of that information for themselves as any practical lawyer knowing anything about property law—Mr SPEAKER: Order! We just need the answer to the question. Supplementary question Denis O'Rourke. [Interruption] Order! We just need the question first. [Interruption] Order! Mr Bridges. Supplementary question Denis O'Rourke.Denis O'Rourke: This will stump them.Mr SPEAKER: Order! I am doing my best—[Interruption] Order! The member will resume his seat. I am doing my best to maintain order so the member can ask his question. It certainly does not help when he starts his question that way. Stand and ask the supplementary question or I will be moving on. Denis O'Rourke: How have other jurisdictions successfully introduced registers without a Bill of Rights issue emerging?Rt Hon WINSTON PETERS: Now that is a wonderful question but it is better directed to our own self-appointed Lord Denning or the "Blackstone of the Antipodes". A basic tenet of our legal system is rights and responsibilities. If a foreign national is granted the right to own land here then they would have the responsibility of being on this register. You would think a cumberground like—[Interruption] It is a bit heavy for me. You would think that a cumberground like Minister Finlayson would understand that."
