Utikere TangiTANGI UTIKERE (Labour—Palmerston North): Kia orana meitaki maata. Thank you Mr Chair. I thank the Minister for some of those responses. It's pleasing to see that that label has been provided because it did cause some concern prior—well earlier in the day—that things couldn't be seen. I wonder whether the Minister once he's now seen it in colour or in black and white whichever he chooses—actually it would be quite good to have the regulatory impact statement (RIS) that everyone knows about whether it's in colour or black and white I don't think members really mind. Just having it would be quite helpful. You know digitally or even soft copy hard copy just having the RIS I think would be quite helpful particularly given that you know we don't have a select committee process so the need of the House and this committee to scrutinise what's currently before it is really really important.We will leave that with the Minister because we haven't seemed to see much action in that space today. But there is still hope because the final vote on this bill hasn't been taken yet. So there still is an opportunity for the Minister to provide that to inform the committee and the House's thinking as to whether this bill should proceed or not.Having said that I wonder whether the Minister has had a chance to see whether there were any other gaps because I note that my colleague Camilla Belich has a tabled Amendment Paper that does seek to insert new clause 22A. It does relate to the ability for sellers and importers of vehicles to identify a value that would have been applicable had the scheme not been repealed. I think that's really important because it lends itself to how seriously some of these decisions are taken but also that it's going to be an opportunity to display that on the energy economy label as well. So I'll leave that with the Minister and any other gaps that he may have as well.I do think it's also important to just hear from the Minister about the price differential between electric vehicles and non-electric vehicles (EVs). You know all the evidence seems to suggest that that will narrow over time. And I'm sure that having a best evidence - based approach is one that the Minister I'm sure would appreciate in practice and in reality. I just wonder whether there are any comments around why the life of the scheme perhaps shouldn't be extended as a result of that—that narrowing of that price differential over time that there is a justification there about well why not extend the life of the scheme to allow that narrowing to get to the point where effectively there is an equilibrium I think would be quite helpful.I wonder whether also in terms of Part 2 which is around the administration the Minister had given any thoughts to possibly decreasing the discount threshold—that's actually very important. My colleague the Hon Dr Megan Woods talks about the importance of labelling being applied to second-hand vehicles that are new to New Zealand. That's important but also the accessibility to the market is equally important in making sure that that is the case. I want to just very briefly touch on my amendment that has been tabled and my colleague Dr Woods has already referred to that. It does seek to in clause 26 insert a new part within the Schedule and that relates to an ability to have a purchase arrangement in place Minister by the end of 31 December 2023 and if that is the case then the rebate would still be applicable. Now we have heard previously that members of our community can just go on out to a lot get a car before then and all will be sorted and sweet. The reality is that most people who would look to use this as an incentive can't just go out and pick up an EV off the lot. Now if this was an opportunity to say Look there is provision let's have arrangements in place at the end of 31 December let's honour those arrangements" in terms of those households who—and many of us have referred to this in contributions in this Chamber already—have been thinking about getting an EV and have made that decision. I think I'd be interested to hear the thoughts on the Minister's approach or the Government's approach to basically penalise those members who may be planning to do this in the lead-up to Christmas but for whatever reason they don't. Hon Dr Megan Woods: All I want for Christmas is an EV.TANGI UTIKERE: All I want for Christmas is an EV. And I think you know it might be an opportunity to provide a level of fairness for those that may wish to have that as their Christmas present come this Christmas."
