Bayly Andrew; Mallard TrevorANDREW BAYLY (National—Hunua): It is a pleasure to be talking on this Budget. I actually think it is a bumper Budget. It is a bumper Budget for us all—all except I think the Labour Party. That is the only group I think that does not believe that this is a good Budget.I think this Budget needs to be seen in the context of a growing economy. That does not come about just through good luck; that comes about through good management. That is particularly at a Government level but I think we also need to acknowledge all those business people who are hard-working and all their staff and employees who work in those businesses earn those incomes and provide and make those goods and services for New Zealand. But unlike with some of our political opponents that requires teamwork and this Budget is about sharing the benefits of the growth with many.I think that if we reflect on last year 137000 new jobs were created in New Zealand—137000 jobs that provided opportunities for young people for people who have been out of work to get into gainful employment and build the self-respect that comes with having a job. As a result we have delivered increasing Budget surpluses. We had the 1.8—last year. And we are going to have an increased Budget surplus this year. The reason this is so important is that it creates the opportunity the money to invest in a whole range of things.I just heard that previous speaker Carmel Sepuloni say that it is a pitiful amount and that we are not doing enough. Well I disagree with that. If you think about the $500 million that has gone into policing with 880 new sworn officers over the 4 years—Sarah Dowie: How many?ANDREW BAYLY: 880 sworn officers with 245 specialists who are going to be focusing just on solving crime. I think that is really important. In my area of Hunua Counties Manukau is going to see the benefit of another 91 new police officers.In addition $11 billion was announced for new spending additional spending on infrastructure motorways and roads. Of course I am benefiting in my area from the triple-laning of the Southern Motorway. Investment in rail—I know the member opposite will be particularly keen about this with the investment in the City Rail Link and with what we are doing in Wellington. Hospitals all around the country have been progressively done up with massive spending. And schools—in my area I am lucky to have had two new schools announced. I have had Ormiston Junior College come on board and also very recently the Flat Bush is going to get a new school.Then there is the record investment in health: $3.9 billion. Part of that of course is that just settlement with care workers—very important just appropriate and good to see. Of course I have many of those places in my electorate. The substantial increase in the operating budgets of the district health boards—I think the Opposition has not been clear about this but I want to just remind people that it is a massive improvement. What I particularly like about the health budget in my area is the $52 million that is going to go into double-crewing of ambulances in little places like Waiuku—some of you may know where that is. A little place like Waiuku in the bottom of my electorate is likely to see the benefit of double-crewing of ambulances. I was actually talking to someone about it yesterday. Then there is the $220 million that is going into mental health—a troubling issue for us all. We have had issues in my electorate and I am particularly grateful and happy that we put that money into it.Then there is housing. We heard that good speech from the Hon Amy Adams earlier today with 34000 new homes over the next 10 years in Auckland—34000 new homes. In my electorate I have got over the next 5 years approximately 13000 sections coming to the market—13000 sections.This now brings me to the issue around the Family Incomes Package. As we know we have got the three elements that we have talked about—a $2 billion package—and these are going to deliver huge benefits for New Zealand. There are 1.34 million families who are going to benefit along with 750000 superannuitants because of the lower tax rates and 41000 university students because of the changes in the accommodation supplement. I think this is a great Budget I really do. I think this is going a long way to addressing the vulnerable people in our society creating opportunities for people.The ASSISTANT SPEAKER (Hon Trevor Mallard): Order! The member's time has expired.
