Faafoi KrisHon KRIS FAAFOI (Minister of Broadcasting Communications and Digital Media): Thank you Mr Speaker. I'd like to begin as a number of members have in the general debate and thank the huge number of people in our communities but obviously also the team of 5 million as people have been referring to for the huge commitment to stamping out COVID-19 during the level 4 portion of the last six or seven weeks—everyone. A big effort and it has got us to the stage now where going hard and going early has put us in a position to make some decisions about going into different levels. If you take some of the questions that have come from the Opposition and you look across the Tasman we will be in spaces and have enterprise and commerce moving much more than across the Tasman and it is every New Zealander and their commitment to level 4 that has got us there.I did want to also as a local MP thank a number of efforts of people and groups in and around the community. One I want to start with is very well-known to my colleague to my right Jan Logie and myself as members of Parliament in the Mana electorate and that is Caroline Herewini and her group at the women's refuge in Porirua. Despite being in lockdown Caroline and her team in challenging conditions have continued to provide a safe space for those women who have had to get away from abusive situations offering them and providing them the basics of life. It's those kinds of community people who despite the level 4 lockdown and despite having challenges potentially in their own home have continued to offer a service to those who most need it.Another person I want to mention is a bloody good man who used to be a security guard here at Parliament: John Hannan who is the welfare officer at the Porirua RSA. Now John had surgery on his hand recently but despite that he has continued to make phone calls for the RSA of a welfare nature not just in our own city but right across the region. So in amongst what I'm sure are 5 million amazing stories locally it has been lovely to hear some of the commitment of people in communities like John and like Caroline who have kept communities ticking over. We owe a commitment to those people to stay the course to make sure that all the gains that we have got from level 4 and level 3 are maintained and allow us to hopefully transition to levels which will get us back to some form of normality when we are ready. There's been plenty of debate about when the right time to do that is balancing up all the public health and other issues that we need to around the public as well. But we need to make sure we do it in a considered and measured way to make sure that for that commitment of people like Caroline like John and like everyone in every community in New Zealand it is done in a safe way because if there's one thing we don't want to do it is to go up levels because we have moved too early. Assistance has been given by the Government since the COVID outbreak in terms of wage subsidies offers of small-business loans etc. to make sure that we can take the edges off the disruption to businesses and obviously to make sure that people can meet their basic needs. But the best thing that we can do to protect our economy is to make sure that we stamp out the virus and that is why again I am absolutely proud of the effort of the team of 5 million to do that.Again locally it's been quite difficult as a member of Parliament to gauge just how your community is doing when you're stuck at home. You're either relying on keeping in touch via Zoom messages Facebook or obviously old-school technology—the phone. So there are good things that I've seen online like schools who have used online portals to make sure that kids get read books. So Kaye Brunton the principal of Ngāti Toa School—who you will know too as well Jan—has been going to the internet or Facebook every day to make sure the kids get read a book. I believe there is one called Mr Stink—which I have read myself—by David Walliams which was quite popular on Ngāti Toa School's Facebook page for obvious reasons. Again that's making sure that there's connection for children in a difficult time where they don't understand. But we do owe a debt to make sure that we do this right for those kinds of people.
