Bayly AndrewANDREW BAYLY (National—Hunua): Thank you Mr Speaker. It's an interesting thing to be talking on this Kāinga Ora—Homes and Communities Bill and I think that Minister Phil Twyford should actually apologise to people on this side of the House for the failings that he has set about doing over the last 19 or maybe 20 months. In fact it's interesting that this is the first time we've even heard KiwiBuild talked about in the Budget—the so-called Wellbeing Budget. Why is that? Why is that? We all know why. We had—what? What were the targets we had? KiwiBuild were going to do 1000 houses in the first year. That became—what? Alastair Scott: No it was 10000 in the first year. ANDREW BAYLY: Oh 10000. Then it was 1000 then it was 300. Now it's 200—isn't it? Hon Gerry Brownlee: No 74. ANDREW BAYLY: Oh! Well I think Mr Brownlee we've achieved 74 so far. This is a Minister who is in trouble who is not across his portfolio. It's taken 20 months to get to this stage and hey presto we're going to bang three organisations together and that's going to solve it. That's going to solve it. Hon Gerry Brownlee: Straight under the carpet. ANDREW BAYLY: Yep—yep. It's interesting. You know the three entities are quite good—well at least one of them. I think HLC run by that well-known person Chris Aitken has actually achieved a lot. He has achieved a lot. They have done a good job out in west Auckland and of course now in central Auckland but the—Simon O'Connor: And Tāmaki. ANDREW BAYLY: Yes that's right Mr O'Connor—and in your electorate Tāmaki. But the issue around slashing and burning and hashing these three entities Housing New Zealand; its subsidiary HLC; and KiwiBuild which is now turning into a bit of a branding disaster together into one entity—that's going to solve it! I think the issue is you know we all know that KiwiBuild is on life-support. If there's anything that needs oxygen it would have to be KiwiBuild. Hon Gerry Brownlee: They've pulled the plug on it today. ANDREW BAYLY: Well yeah I know Mr Brownlee. But the thing I find quite interesting about this Mr Speaker is that this is the Kāinga Ora bill—right? But actually on looking I'm reliably informed by a colleague that Auckland District Health Board and Waitematā District Health Board also have an entity called Kāinga Ora and that was established in 2013 by—guess who?—National. National. In fact it was further enhanced in 2016. Do you know what it does Minister? Do you know what that entity does the one that's owned by the district health boards (DHBs)—this Kāinga Ora entity? What it does is it provides heaters insulation and curtains for people who have got homes that are cold and damp—right—and we chucked money into it. It's a great proposal. My first question to the Minister is that you've just nicked the name of another Government entity that's part of the DHB so are they going to have to now rebrand? Are they going to have to rebrand? All the wellbeing money that you've thrown into the DHBs the so-called millions of dollars—are they now going to have to spend some of it rebranding Kāinga Ora in the Waitematā and Auckland DHBs? I think that would be a travesty Minister. I also love this thought about—and I love these terms—having urban development at pace". Well I've got to say the only thing that Mayor Len Brown used to talk about doing was "at pace". Everything was being done "at pace" and it's good that the Minister is now picking up on this phrase. "Vibrant communities"—that is something I am sure that by the time this bill is finished we are going to be sick and tired of hearing. Then the other one is the "high-quality master planning"—ooh yes. These are phrases that just roll off the tongue and of course sound beautiful—absolutely beautiful. One might also say it's in the context of a wellbeing warm feeling. I think Minister we will be testing you during the course of this bill as it progresses through the House because putting three entities together and rebranding them and hoping that that will solve your problems will not—SPEAKER: Order! Order! ANDREW BAYLY: —actually and we will be chasing—sorry Mr Speaker. Thank you very much."
