Andersen Ginny; Rurawhe AdrianGINNY ANDERSEN (Labour—Hutt South): How can I outdo that fantastic speech from the wonderful Dr Emily Henderson? Look to wrap things up tonight I'd like to give thanks to all members for their well-thought-through and well-delivered speeches tonight. It's really heartening to have support from all the different parties represented in this House to take my bill to select committee. No members' bill is ever perfect—well some might be but I acknowledge that there are parts of this that will need further work potentially from advice that we receive through the submissions process and also from advice that we may well receive from officials. I welcome that to strengthen the bill where it needs to be and to make sure it accurately reflects and works well with other elements of existing law and other policies in place that work towards protecting New Zealand's children.As a mum I think of my children and nothing strikes fear into my heart more than the thought of them coming to harm. I guess that's the motivating factor really for me bringing this bill to the House it is as a parent who wants my children to have full access to the knowledge and the availability of information and the wonderful opportunities for learning that the internet and this world hold but at the same time I want to protect them from those who set out to do them harm by masquerading on the internet. So I look forward to taking this bill to the next stage and hearing the expert advice from those who come before us.I'd like to close by acknowledging first of all New Zealand Police who continue to do a fantastic job in this space which is an incredibly difficult one to work at whether you're working with families who have been impacted from instances of online grooming or grooming in general to those who have to work towards putting the case together and prosecuting which can take hours upon hours that result in an unsuccessful outcome sometimes. A lot of hard work goes into making New Zealand as safe as possible.I'd like to acknowledge all the parents. We've heard tonight so many accounts of the ongoing struggles that parents have on a daily basis with monitoring how much online activity children do and how we make sure that they continue to keep themselves safe while learning and engaging on online platforms. Acknowledging that that is a heavy weight to bear as a parent and that continuing to communicate with our children and understanding what they're doing each day is a good step in the right direction.Finally I would like to acknowledge young people in New Zealand—those young people that are growing up in an ever-changing world whether that be through COVID19 or the internet and its way of expressing ourselves online. Unfortunately one of the outcomes from COVID-19 has meant that more than ever we rely upon the internet for communication and therefore we should remain as vigilant as ever to make sure we protect how our young people are engaging with each other and others within the community and even in other countries. This bill provides further protection for our children in New Zealand and it does it under New Zealand law. It sends a very clear message that an adult impersonating a child with the intent of meeting someone is not acceptable and I look forward to taking this bill further to see that we can make it into law. I commend the bill to the House.Motion agreed to.Bill read a first time.DEPUTY SPEAKER: The question is That the Crimes (Child Exploitation Offences) Amendment Bill be considered by the Justice Committee.Motion agreed to.Bill referred to the Justice Committee.
