Bidois DanDAN BIDOIS (National—Northcote): It's a pleasure to rise and take a call on this bill. Just to pick up where the previous speaker Jenny Marcroft left off I think there's a lot of the purpose of the bill and the goals of this bill that we all agree on. We all want to make sure that our most vulnerable Kiwis being our young Kiwis are protected and so I don't think we're disagreeing on that. We're not even disagreeing on supporting the bill. We are in fact supporting this bill through to the committee of the whole House stage but we want to make sure that this bill has the maximum impact that it could possibly have. I don't sit on the Health Committee but I've had a chance to digest some of the key themes. I want to just pick up on I think a really important aspect from the select committee which was around vaping because I can't understand why we're advancing this bill to protect our young children yet we're not making any substantial changes in the area of vaping—particularly as it relates to of course protecting our young New Zealanders. There are no changes that come from select committee to this bill in the area of vaping and this Government has had many chances and a lot of time. You know for the last two years we've had calls on this Government to introduce some framework around vaping that would regulate it and protect our most vulnerable New Zealanders our young children from accessing and getting hands on these products but this Government hasn't given us a date on in fact where we're at with that vaping legislation. They could have told us tonight; they were supposed to tell us a few weeks or so after September. Well we're a few weeks after September of 2019. So we're failing to take action on what I think and what the select committee submitters think is a serious issue which is around vaping and the lack of regulations that there are currently in existence. This is important because of our goal in New Zealand which is to be smoke-free by 2025 and vaping is a channel by which we can achieve that goal but we do not have the clear regulations around that for New Zealand. So we'll be putting up some Supplementary Order Papers around this in the committee of the whole House but I ask and I call on the Government to act on this issue now. Introduce your legislation around vaping. We've even given you a helping hand. There is a member's bill in the ballot that effectively regulates it. It's from my colleague Nicky Wagner. She's got a fantastic bill—and I say this earnestly in a non-partisan fashion right? She's got a great member's bill. You could just delete her name and take it as a Government bill if you like. Hon Nicky Wagner: I'll give it to you. DAN BIDOIS: She'll give it to you. This is such an important issue for New Zealand. It's an important issue for my community in Northcote where I've got half a dozen vape shops around my area. They don't have the certainty of knowing how to go about their business. The people who are using these products don't have the certainty and as a result the issue of the welfare of our young children in New Zealand is at risk. So I call on the Government to take my colleague's bill out of the members' ballot to call it their own and to introduce legislation tomorrow for vaping. So on balance we're supporting this legislation in the House. There are a lot of flaws with this legislation but I commend this bill to the House.
