Bennett PaulaHon PAULA BENNETT (Deputy Prime Minister): Obviously social investment is working because now it is Labour's idea. Ha! So now it is the Labour members who came up with social investment and they are able to look back on it and see it because for them it was obviously their idea and so now they accept that social investment actually is working.I found it quite ironic for the member to talk about a loss of dignity in a week when Labour tried to put its list-ranking list out and all it has had is members who had to resign at the last minute—and may I recognise the work of Sue Moroney who quite frankly has probably held the Government to account and stood up for the rights of women more than any other woman in the Labour Party in recent years. She has actually stood up and has done her thing and has run campaigns and has actually had members' bills pulled out and has done a strong job.Labour does not have a single Waikato member on the Labour list in the top 30 or 35. So that is actually what Labour thinks about the Waikato region. I must say I take my hat off to people like Tim Macindoe and David Bennett and the Lindsay Tisches of this world—Barbara I know is sort of in there as well. It just says that obviously they are doing such a fantastic job that Labour is not even bothering to step in there and take them on. But we have people like Sue Moroney who quite frankly I think has been treated appallingly by the Labour Party. But that is all right.I do have a little message for the Labour Party: quite frankly if you cannot even run a list-ranking process you cannot run a country. If you cannot even get your list out when you say you are going to and not have members publicly out there having their 10c' worth and having to then have their bit then quite frankly I do not think that you are ready and I do not think the country will think you are ready either.So let us contrast that—I am quite happy to—with where this Government is at what we are achieving and what we are clearly—Rt Hon Winston Peters: That'll be a short speech won't it? This will be a short speech if it's about achievements.Hon PAULA BENNETT: —focused on Mr Peters. I am really really happy to put our record up against a failed member's any day of the week. So let us talk about some of those results. They do not like it—do they Mrs Tolley—when we talk about the fact that we have the lowest number on welfare that we have had since 1997. No way. And where are they going? That might be that employment rates are up today. Ha ha! It might be that more are employed and are absolutely doing better in this country because we have set targets because we have worked hard but better than that because New Zealanders have employed them. Those people have got off benefits on their own merits and on their own hard work. I congratulate them and I really recognise that.They also do not like another one in your portfolio Mrs Tolley. They do not like the fact that there are 57 percent fewer teen mums on benefits at the moment and we are seeing them actually get ahead. We have got an over 40 percent reduction in the actual number of births to teenagers and we are seeing more of those young women who are actually having babies early remaining educated and getting ahead—Rt Hon Winston Peters: Actually I thought that was a personal choice not a Government's choice.Hon PAULA BENNETT: —like they never ever have before. Yes Mr Peters we are proud of it and we will stand by those kinds of records any—any—day of the week. Today the Prime Minister has announced new targets and new Better Public Services targets. Six of them are brand new two of them are being extended and for two of them we have got more work to do for us to achieve that and we will stand by that as well. They are around things like reducing long-term welfare dependency and having healthy mums and babies.I must say that when Minister Coleman first suggested that he wanted to see more pregnant women in that first trimester actually being with a lead maternity carer (LMC) I said to him: why on earth would we need to increase that? I would have thought that in this great country of ours we already had that. I was kind of astounded to hear that that is only at 65 percent. We can get that from 65 percent to 90 percent and it will make a big difference for them to be getting that kind of medical care earlier establishing that relationship with that LMC and being able to really get ahead there.The Safekids and fewer hospitalisations for children for preventable conditions—we have purposefully done it like that. We want to see that crossover between housing health social welfare justice—the whole nine yards and into accidents as well. So we were purposefully quite clever in how we did that and how we pulled them together.This is a Government that is clearly focused. This is a Government that has not got third-term-itis" but is ready to work for New Zealand and New Zealanders by having the Public Service clearly focused on the stuff that matters to New Zealand."
