Martin TraceyTRACEY MARTIN (NZ First): New Zealand First will not be supporting the Estimates and I will give you a few reasons why. Inside this 4-year Estimates period there is $20 million that will be given to integrated school property—that is private property owned by other people and $20 million of taxpayers' money will be going to that. I realise that a deal was done to actually bring integrated schools inside the Education Act 1989. Some parts were removed so that they do not actually have to meet some other criteria that they used to have to meet but right now $20 million of taxpayers' money is going to be provided to integrated schools for their private property. Let us not forget that there is no mention inside these Estimates of how the negotiations are going to get back the $5 million of taxpayers' money that was handed to the Whangaruru trust. There is no mention inside these Estimates about that money.There is $5.231 million over 4 years to put untrained apprentices in front of our children—$5.231 million of taxpayers' money to put untrained apprentices in front of our senior students. Yet at the same time what is not inside these Estimates is money for Computers in Homes to actually narrow down the digital divide for some of our families. Mr Bishop should be very aware of that because many of those families are actually in the electorate that he is hoping to win. There is no money for SeniorNet. As this Government drives more and more social services online there is not a single dollar in here for SeniorNet to help our seniors keep connected to the Government services they require. There is no money for the gifted and talented.Every single one of those things has been cut inside this Budget. We could have spent that $5 million just on Computers in Homes. We could have spent that $5 million on SeniorNet—that $5 million that is going to put apprentices in front of our people because this Government cannot do workforce planning when it comes to teachers and cannot seem to invest a little bit of money on actually doing some workforce planning so that we do not lurch from one shortage to another. For $5 million we could have kept Computers in Homes for $5 million we could have kept SeniorNet and yet what we have got is apprentices inside our classrooms in these Estimates.There is $8 million over 4 years for English for speakers of other languages (ESOL). That is well and good but it is not enough. It is not enough because not only is it only $8 million over 4 years—and let us get real; so many of those students need that support because they come from other nations and they deserve that support because we want them to participate fully in New Zealand life—but there is a 5-year limit on how much support they can get regardless of whether they have the language skills required to continue their education.So we have Pasifika students up at our secondary school who can no longer get any sort of ESOL support. There was a wonderful programme—an amazingly wonderful pilot programme—that was trialled at Mahurangi College. The students did well. The student voice said This is so good. Can we please have it after school to put our parents on it?" and what happened? This Government pulled the funding. So we had a successful ESOL pilot. This Government pulled the funding. It may have put $8 million in here over 4 years but it goes nowhere—nowhere—to addressing that.There is $7.6 million over 4 years for Māori language resources. What about the resource teachers of Māori? It is all very well and good to decide you are going to have another printed resource or another DVD that one is going to post out to schools. What about the resource teachers of Māori—17 years under review. They have been 17 years under review and this Government decides it will put $7.6 million over 4 years for some more DVDs and a couple of books. New Zealand First cannot support a Budget like this that actually has very little practical outcomes. It looks good on paper; it does not translate to the ground.There is close to $30 million in this Budget for Novopay cock-ups. For the Holidays Act compliance there is $15 million. There is $13.9 million over 4 years to stabilise the payroll—that is Novopay people. It is another $30 million—the gift that keeps on taking. That is what this Government has signed us up to with that payroll service. So how could anybody support Estimates like these based on dodgy information and a totally unrealistic and completely disconnected view of what is happening in our schools and what needs to be supported?"
