Yang JianDr JIAN YANG (National): I see some familiar faces here. I think they are looking forward to Nuk's valedictory speech and not really listening to my speech but nevertheless—nevertheless—since you are here I think I should give you some background to this bill so that you have a better understanding about what we are talking about. This bill a local bill is a very small bill trying to authorise the transfer of the Otama Rural Water Supply scheme from the Gore District Council to the Otama Rural Water Supply committee. So that is the bill.Now this is Part 2 which is about the process for obtaining authorisation to transfer the scheme. While in Part 1 we talked about the purpose and we talked about the assets. In this part we're talking about the details—how to make sure that we can manage the transfer from the council to the committee. The sponsor of the bill Mark Patterson said that it's a very very robust process. I agree. Indeed if you look at this particular section you'll find that it will go through a few processes.Firstly the council need to make some documents publicly available particularly the plans—all sorts of plans particularly some agreements. So we'll see here these kinds of documents so that people will have time to read and to digest and to decide whether they will support it or not. So there will be a referendum. Now these plans or agreements right? Firstly you have the plan. You have to do an analysis of the types of contractual agreements that the company will need to enter into with the council and other parties to obtain goods and services.So this basically makes sure that after transfer the company—or basically the committee—will be able to have this kind of ability to maintain the scheme. You need to have this kind of agreement to make sure you have the ability to obtain the goods and services and then you have to assess the likely capital and also the cost because when you have someone to work for you you need to have the money and this transfer will make sure that the committee will be able to raise the funds to make sure that they have the money for 30 years to hire people basically to do the maintenance.Thirdly of course this part will require the company to have this kind of ability to maintain and operate the scheme satisfactorily for a period of 30 years. So this is basically a very detailed process. In the meantime we need to remember who will be able to vote in the referendum. This part again very very clearly defines who should be able to vote and only those users will be able to vote. Those who live in the area—those who are using the water from the scheme—will be able to vote.When I was reading this particular section there was one part where I was wondering whether people can really vote through the post because people may not be able to go to Gore to vote in person. I was wondering whether it is possible for them to post their vote either in support or against. This part does not seem to clarify this. Perhaps if we look at the Local Electoral Act that may be very clear. But on the other hand I will say that this part is a very detailed process analysis and it will make sure that transfer of the Otama Rural Water Supply scheme is to be successful to be very smooth from the council to the committee and therefore I do thank them the sponsor of this particular bill for their contribution and I do believe it is indeed a robust process.
