Muller ToddTODD MULLER (National—Bay of Plenty): In my contribution this afternoon I would like to talk about how we are delivering for New Zealanders through the lens of my community in Papamoa. Firstly I would like to start by reflecting on the population growth that has occurred in my community over the last few years. It is quite significant. It is now in the top four in the country and indeed a 74 percent increase in our population is expected through to 2023. As you would expect the job opportunities in my community have spiked. It is quite extraordinary the number of jobs that we have created in the community over the last year—in the Tauranga area over 4000—and we expect that number to increase over the next 12 months.Not only are those jobs coming it is the nature of them from manual labour which is critical to supporting a kiwifruit industry that has recovered beyond people's expectations all the way through to applied manufacturing IT and professional services. We have GDP growth at just on 5 percent. We have employment growth of 5 percent. It is a community that is performing exceedingly well.What I would like to do this afternoon is to tip beyond those high-level numbers—which of course are very positive and reflect the collective effort of our community to deliver on those—and actually talk to the work that has been done by the Government local government and the community to ensure that that momentum is maintained.Firstly we have anticipated where the people will live. We have a mechanism called Smart Growth which has identified that Ōmokoroa Tauriko and Papamoa are the communities of the future. They are where the growth is going to occur. Through this Government we have enabled 11 special housing areas to be established the most per capita in the country and the most successful in terms of a local government application of that opportunity that exists across the country.Two weeks ago we announced the Government's contribution to securing that future growth pipeline for our community—$230 million worth of infrastructure that is going to facilitate that growth; interest-free to underpin infrastructure for wastewater; through to enabling another 4700 houses to be built in the short term in Papamoa. Accessible Properties has taken over from Housing New Zealand. It has over 1100 houses it has clear plans to build in the short and medium term and the resistance that the community initially expressed has all but dissipated as they can see the values and focus on service that that company is delivering. On top of that the Government's contribution to the housing pressures in our community is 220 emergency housing places for the Bay of Plenty. Already there is a number under way and being welcomed by the community. But we are building enabling infrastructure to be able to support that growth. We have completed ultra-fast fibre. We were one of the first areas to get it completed. We now have the highest uptake in the country and that has seen a remarkable pull for businesses and talent and people to our community.In terms of our infrastructure and roading we have opened the Tauranga Eastern Link. We have committed half a billion dollars to the Tauranga Northern Link which starts next year and which my communities are going to be hugely supportive of particularly those on the western side of my electorate.We have announced two new schools to be built in the next 18 months in my electorate one in Papamoa and one in Pyes Pā and of course a huge number of classrooms as Matt Doocey has talked to which is going to facilitate the appropriate modern learning environment that we need as a community.But on top of that we are ensuring that this economic momentum which is significant is supported. As someone who has lived in the community for 40 years I have seen some booms before but this is quite different. It is not just retirees moving from Hamilton and Auckland down to Tauranga; it is a complete mix of families and skills and people with ambition and excitement and it is a great place to be but we cannot just assume it is going to stay that way. That is why we have a regional growth strategy which is very clear in terms of the sectors that we believe need support. We know that there are specific areas in respect of education that we are focused on. We have got Toi Ohomai being established with the merging of Bay of Plenty Polytechnic and Waiariki Institute of Technology. We have got the university CBD development in the city of Tauranga. It is a city that is significantly different from the one I can recall from when I grew up and we are playing a key part.It is wrong for me to stand here and say it is just the Government for it is not but we are a key part of it because we have got a very clear plan that will continue the delivery of that momentum and will continue to have families and their success and their aspiration at the heart of what we do. It is why I am so proud to be able to take this record to my community over the next few months. Thank you very much.The debate having concluded the motion lapsed.
