Lee MelissaMELISSA LEE (National): Thank you Madam Speaker. I will actually begin by responding to the member who just took his seat Tangi Utikere. Perhaps he should open his eyes and open his ears and listen to New Zealanders who are actually overseas who are stuck or can't come back to New Zealand.I'll give you one example. Last year when we went into lockdown I had been contacted by a constituent who was actually doing business in Palau Island. He thought he would go to Palau do exporting from New Zealand to Palau develop businesses over there and then COVID happened. He got stuck. Palau Island did not have any commercial flights out of Palau; he could not leave Palau. So he contacted me and I actually wrote to the Minister thinking that perhaps there were some contingency plans for people New Zealand citizens who were stuck overseas to be able to come back to New Zealand.Without a commercial flight out of a particular country he could not even book a managed isolation and quarantine (MIQ) slot. So the answer from that Minister who really obviously cares about New Zealanders who are stuck was Oh in July there are plenty of slots. He could just go and click ever single date and he could book."! He could not get out of Palau Island he could not go to New Zealand for no MIQ slots were available to him. He eventually managed to get to the United States and he's been couch surfing at his relative's house ever since. Every time the MIQ slot opens he's number 17000 he's number 20000. He managed to get to the lowest number which was actually number 8000 I believe. I am really concerned about his mental health his wellbeing. For the Government who apparently cares about people New Zealanders this Government is putting this bill—and I completely oppose it because they have utterly shamed us all by failing in their duty to protect all New Zealanders. There should be 6 million New Zealanders not just 5 million and they claim to care.I'd like to acknowledge Dr Elizabeth Kerekere who has actually spoken about their concern the Green Party's concern about data security. During the course of the committee stage I have raised quite a lot of questions in this Chamber regarding that particular issue. There were many more questions and I have to state that I was rather surprised and quite disappointed in the rush of the Government to shut down the debate. I was genuinely doing my bit. I wasn't doing speeches; I was actually standing up and asking specific questions about data security and things like: can the Minister actually explain why when new digital vaccine certifications and past systems are actually coming up he did not actually specifically include that in the legislation? I mean you know there is no forward-thinking. There is also another question: why are there no references to how the data collected is going to be destroyed? There are many questions that I wanted to ask but I didn't get an opportunity so I just wanted to get that on the Hansard.I'd also like to thank my colleagues who actually stood up—the Hon Louise Upston as well as the Hon Michael Woodhouse who spoke in terms of the procedures and they actually backed me up regarding my Supplementary Order Paper (SOP).I'd also like to thank my staff. Officials get thanked but often people in our offices don't get thanked and I just want to thank my assistant who has helped me tremendously my digital policy specialist Matthew Stephens who helped me draft the SOP and I just want to say thank you to him because he's worked really really hard to make sure that we actually plug the gap that the Government isn't doing. The legislation does not go far enough to protect the digital data that is available through the COVID-19 tracer app and I am afraid that when we look back and actually see what the Government has done we'll probably have to come back and fix the problem that they're creating with this legislation.There are many many more examples and you know one of the things that I would actually like to raise is that a young woman came up to me on the street—came up to some of us who were doing visits. She was diagnosed with cancer she was going through chemo and when the lockdown hit her treatment was actually postponed. This is a cancer patient. How cruel can people actually be and you know priority for people who have COVID-19 is actually prioritised over a young woman who has got cancer and was going through treatment but she was postponed because COVID took precedence. I think that is a really really cruel indictment of how this Government prioritises health. I completely and utterly reject this bill."
