Andersen GinnyGINNY ANDERSEN (Labour—Hutt South): Tēnā koe e te Māngai o te Whare. Budget 2022 creates economic security here and now and into the future and that's why it got it right on the right mark. Congratulations to Grant Robertson for not only thinking about how Kiwis are going to feel at the supermarket checkout at the petrol pump in their back pocket each week with the extra payment coming in at 1 August. Not only are those here-and-now provisions given in this Budget but also those long-term challenges those big challenges like climate change—which we have heard nothing about so far in the debate today. Those big challenges like child poverty—which I also I haven't heard much about at all in this debate—and also housing how we're addressing those long-term challenges that New Zealanders are going to have to grapple with.But I'd like to pick out one today and I'd like to highlight the importance of this Budget being the fourth Wellbeing Budget and I'd like to say how proud I am that we are a Government that not only just looks at those fiscal and economic indicators of what wellbeing means but also those deeper social ones. That's why having a Budget that provides better family violence and sexual violence investment in our future is so important. Budget 2022 does exactly that with $114 million over four years to prevent and respond to family violence and sexual violence across New Zealand. In that investment includes a $38 million boost for community-led integrated responses and that is so important. No longer is the Government dictating as it's seen in previous Governments but it's going with communities and letting those organisations lead the way. There's $37.6 million to prevent violence by strengthening particularly our Pacific and our Māori communities to make sure that they have the ability to develop new initiatives. Those initiatives also include ethnic communities older people and youth. There is a $9.8 million boost specifically for victims and perpetrators of family violence. Our Government in investing in a future where everyone no matter who you are where they are from or who they love can live a life that is free from family violence and free from sexual violence. Over the recess I took the opportunity to drop into the Hutt Valley Women's Refuge and for the first time in a long while there was a smile on the chief executive's face because they were well-resourced. They were confident they knew their people they knew their communities and they were looking forward to stepping up and helping lead a local response to family violence that we have never seen before. I would like to let people know that I remember well under the previous Government where there was not enough resourcing to adequately fund the very basic responses. I remember being at a roundtable where a decision was taken due to the insufficient resourcing that children under two would be prioritised if there was physical or sexual violence occurring in that household. I have to sit here and listen about fiscal discipline—well fiscal discipline means cuts. Cuts to people's services and cuts that mean young people grow up in an environment with family harm and sexual violence. I find that world intolerable. This is a Government that continues to invest in our people because we know that that is our primary resource. Budget 2022 will help us deliver better primary prevention services support community-led responses and improve workforce capability to strengthen our community approaches and also to eliminate family violence. This will be developed in partnership. Te Aorerekura has identified six shifts that need to occur in order for tangata whenua specialist sectors communities and the Government to work together towards being able to enjoy a life free from violence. It is so important that we have a national strategy that we have community buy-in that we work towards delivering a better future for our young people. This Budget will also provide $38.1 million to expand the integrated community-led response which recognises the best solutions to complex social challenges like family violence come from within communities with the support of Government agencies. There will also be an additional $8 million to address cost pressures in the health system to allow for more victims to have access to timely specialist assessment referral to specialist services and support into non-fatal strangulation—a big driver of family violence.I'm incredibly proud of a Budget that delivers for the here and now and the big-term issues that we know need to be dealt with. Thank you Mr Speaker.
