Lorck AnnaANNA LORCK (Labour—Tukituki): Thank you Mr Speaker. Well we've just been asked: what does this Government do when it comes to action and delivery? Thank you for the opportunity to tell you how much we've been doing in Hawke's Bay and how much more we've ever done compared to the National Government who did absolutely nothing for Hastings.In fact one thing they seem to think was such an achievement in Hastings was building six State houses. Well I can tell you Mr Speaker that in this Government we've built over 333 homes in Hastings we've got another 111 under way and we've got another 86 in development. Now that's what we call housing. We don't sell down and sell out. We get on and we build—and build back Hawke's Bay we will! Hundreds of millions of dollars of Government investment is coming in to back Hawke's Bay as we rebuild and rebuild resilience in the region.And as I say this I absolutely acknowledge that there is a portion of our region that has absolutely been smashed but there's also a major significant part of our region that is pulling our socks up and getting on with it to get the work done and to keep Hawke's Bay moving. And moving we are because there have been hundreds of millions of dollars invested firstly into the regional recovery but also into what we've been doing. And if anybody wants to know how much I love lists you only have to listen to my general debate speech when I start talking about the millions that we have been investing in Hastings.A record of over $280 million has gone into Hastings outside of the recovery and that has gone into things like water infrastructure. It's gone into civil engineering of investment into infrastructure to build housing. Just in Hastings in Flaxmere we opened another area that's getting on with building thanks to $11.5 million of Government investment because we partner and we work together.As I read the news this week it was absolutely so exciting to see that spending spending in Hastings is up and it's up 27 percent because of international visitors coming back to the bay. That's because we know that tourists love our region and the sun will come up on Hawke's Bay and the visitors will come back and we will continue to see people coming in and backing the bay.And when it comes to advocating hard and working with those Ministers that are making decisions on how we get our region moving on how we build investment you can absolutely be assured that when it comes to Stuart Nash the MP for Napier and with me we're working hard out advocating hard out for our region. And I'm excited about what's yet to come for our region because I can tell you that there are hundreds of millions of dollars coming in. We will build back bridges we will build on the roads we will recover and we will back our growers and we will back our farmers and we will continue to do everything we can to keep our region moving forward.On that I just want to acknowledge again the hard work of our community because it's by working together and showing community pride and spirit and keeping going—the volunteers keep coming in and helping people keep helping each other and every day I speak to people in my region who are needing help and we are there and we will continue to be there.This is a Government that backs the bay. This is a Government that knows how much Hawke's Bay means to New Zealand. That's what's important and that's what I know from what we're seeing: hundreds of millions of dollars—hundreds of millions—coming into the region to keep our region going forward.
