Roche Denise; Tisch LindsayDENISE ROCHE (Green): I rise to take a short call for the Greens. You have heard from my colleague David Clendon earlier that we will be supporting this bill. Initially we did have some concerns about the whole issue of compulsory treatment but on balance—and having gone through the select committee process and looked at the changes that were made and also at the reassurances that came through—the bill as it stands at the moment is a much better piece of legislation than the original outdated 1966 Act.I was not on the Health Committee but I did read through some of the submissions and I want to carry on with the theme that was raised by Ria Bond which is actually about what other services are currently provided for the people who would be under a compulsory substance abuse treatment order. What we heard from the Capital and Coast District Health Board in its submission—it put it really quite eloquently when it said that the current treatment is that there are mental health providers and clinics and centres which are sometimes for people who are under compulsory orders but those are specifically for mental health issues. Then there are residential treatment centres for people with addiction issues but those are for patients or clients with substance abuse problems who are actually undergoing that treatment willingly. So where do you treat the people who will be under a compulsory order who are not actually that willing in the first place? Where do you put them?The point that my colleague from New Zealand First made was that we have a mental health system that is frequently shored up by the not-for-profit sector but it is woefully underfunded and in fact the entire health system has been underfunded cumulatively over the last 8 years of this Government. So the question is: where do we put people? Then there is also the concern about how many clients there will be. How many people will be under a compulsory treatment order? The reason we should be concerned about that is the P epidemic.The Greens were privileged to be at Te Tii Marae on the day before Waitangi Day and to be in that whare when the hīkoi—the march—of the community people who were marching against having P in their communities came through the pōwhiri and into the whare and talked and put their take on the floor. The concern they have is that there is a scarcity of treatment options available when you consider that even the Salvation Army in its state of the nation report last week is saying that P is the scourge in our communities and that it is basically wiping out entire communities and families and is having a huge impact. It is a generational problem and we are not seeing access—and appropriate access—to treatment either when you consider that Māori are more impacted in this kind of area. There are some statistics. From 2015 a report showed that amphetamine and cannabis use was much much higher—disproportionately so—in the Māori population. Similarly with hazardous drinkers Māori made up 35.3 percent of all people seen by alcohol and drug addiction teams while being 15 percent of the population.So we have to wonder: will there be services that are culturally appropriate? Will there be services that are actually focused on prevention? That is the cheapest option and that is the thing that is best for our families and communities but that takes investment and I challenge this Government to invest in our communities and particularly in the regions. Thank you.The ASSISTANT SPEAKER (Lindsay Tisch): I call Jenny Salesa—5 minutes.
