Ngarewa-Packer DebbieDEBBIE NGAREWA-PACKER (Co-Leader—Te Paati Māori): Thank you Mr Speaker. We will support Parliament's No. 1 motion as it aligns with our values as tangata w'enua. Also Te Paati Māori will vote in support of this motion as it rightly draws attention to the suffering of Uyghur people and the human rights abuses they are facing. We are pleased to see the point of order to stop this motion being watered down before it was debated. We must never attempt to silence the atrocities of genocides and that's happening to indigenous peoples. We need to be calling out these atrocities for what they are wherever they are happening in the world.I stand as a descendant of Pari'aka a descendant of muru raupatu. The depth of pain of genocide can never be explained. The deliberate killing of a large number of people from particular or ethnic groups with the one aim of destroying or wiping out that nation or group is deplorable. I guess what we are here for today is making sure that we use our sphere of influence to bring to attention that more than a million people are estimated to have been detained at internment camps in the regions and many are suffering from rape; abuse; horrible inhumane practices such as organ harvesting; mass torture; slavery; forcible removals. We must condemn these actions for what they are. We must make sure that we never lose sight of those who have been our w'anaunga those who we have living beside us.Te Paati Māori has a strong track record on standing up for human rights and indigenous rights in Aotearoa and internationally—in fact it's been the bane of much discussion this week. We will continue to advocate for indigenous peoples and fight racism and bigotry in all its forms. We stand in solidarity with all indigenous and oppressed peoples right around the world. Ethnic violence starts with racism. Racism is something that we shouldn't be scared of calling each other up for. We should use this place to lead and stamp it out. I don't think that's the example that we've been seeing out of this place this House.Just as we stand with our w'anau with our people we too need to stand with our Pasifika w'anaunga in West Papua who are suffering genocide. We stand with our tangata moemoeā Aboriginal brothers and sisters. We stand with the First Nations of Turtle Island fighting for justice at Standing Rock and our Hawaiian w'anaunga at Mauna Kea. Let me remind this House again that we normalise and continue to be OK with those who have been perpetrators of genocide with the monsters we still continue to have on our walls.Finally ACT is well known for pushing colonial agendas that oppress indigenous peoples here in Aotearoa so it's important that Te Paati Māori say that we struggled to understand how they've all of a sudden adopted or developed a desire to support the indigenous peoples in China. It was just five months ago they were calling to abolish our own Human Rights Commission. In this House we continue to hear words like segregation separatism apartheid—those denying partnerships of Te Tiriti. One would hope that they extend this new moral position to their own country and let the tangata w'enua enjoy the same support that they are proposing for everyone else. Nō reira i te āhuatanga o tā tātou tipuna ngā mihi aroha ki a koutou kia kaha kia māia ki te tangata w'enua. Kia ora rā. [Therefore in line with the characteristic or our ancestor I wish to sincerely acknowledge the indigenous people be strong and brave. Thank you.]Motion agreed to.
