Bennett GlenGLEN BENNETT (Labour—New Plymouth): Kia ora Mr Speaker. I rise in support of the third reading of the Child Support Amendment Bill and it's been a pleasure as a first-term MP to be part of the process from the select committee to the second reading to the committee of the whole House and now to the third reading. I thank all those who have been a part of creating and crafting debating and tweaking are supporting submitting and sharing their views and their stories both personal and from a communities level.I've been listening to the speeches in the Chamber this afternoon and there's been some conversation around the fact of it being child centred or where those words are within the bill and Deborah Russell made it really clear early on around the morality statement within this piece of legislation: that parents must support their children. I know in this House we want to do all we can to ensure that happens. I also heard Maureen Pugh mention the interests of the child being at the heart of this legislation and whether there should have been something in there. Also Chlöe Swarbrick spoke around it not bringing their voices to the centre. But my hope is that this bill focuses on our tamariki whether in writing or not because this piece of legislation is around some technical changes; it's around ensuring that parents are able to engage with IRD better that parents are able to sort out penalties that there is more grace it's fairer and I believe having those in place and making it simpler for a parent to access child support or to pay child support means less stress means less worry means less drama at home which obviously trickles down to the child. So I believe that this is addressing and putting children at the centre of this piece of legislation.I could get on to the technical—you know IRD doing their thing that several other MPs have mentioned around their Business Transformation progress in terms of their technology platform. I believe this is one of the last pieces to be done in terms of getting that in place and in order. So it's good to finally get there. I'm sure that the officials are relieved about that. But I want to do some thankyous. Angie Warren-Clark: To yourself?GLEN BENNETT: To myself? No not at all. I am a humble servant of this House. People in New Plymouth are very humble and that's how we roll but I do want to acknowledge the less humble—no the very humble—Hon David Parker for bringing this piece of legislation to the House. To our under-secretary born in New Plymouth—that's right—and raised too an accountant Deborah Russell and for her participation within the committee stage and in drafting this. Also too members of the select committee thank you for all you did and I know for many of you we heard stories that this is personal as well that you have been a part of this dealing with Inland Revenue when it comes to child support. I thank our officials for drafting and of course as I said earlier to our submitters and for putting themselves out there often bringing up issues and challenges from their past when it comes to separation. To Angie Warren-Clark thank you for guiding me—the blind leading the blind—but that's probably a little bit offensive; apologies about your eye surgery. But thank you for leading us through this and leading me in my new role as deputy chair and then acting chair and thankfully deputy chair again.I guess I want to finish and acknowledge the 182800 children whom this piece of legislation affects. Children are at the centre of this bill. By taking away some of the stressors for parents I believe we will serve that over 182000 children within New Zealand who are recipients of child support. So thank you to everyone for supporting it and I commend this bill to the House.
