Bidois DanDAN BIDOIS (National—Northcote): It's a pleasure to speak in the general debate. I just want to pick up on the previous point about the measles. Look I've travelled a lot in the world particularly to developing countries. The measles outbreak that we have in New Zealand is just frankly something that I would expect more in the developing world. It's not something I'd expect here in New Zealand. So it's all very good and well to say that they've done X or Y or Z but why do we still have a measles outbreak? That is the question that I have today.But let us wind back the clock 10 months ago where Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern claimed that this was going to be her year of delivery. And 10 months on what can we say about that? Well I would encourage a rephrase of that statement to be the year of incompetence"—incompetence on KiwiBuild incompetence on the economy incompetence on mental health incompetence on boosting the police numbers incompetence in transport and of course incompetence in dealing with the measles outbreak.This Government can't deliver because they don't have the team they don't have the strategy and they don't have the plan to deliver on their promises. They're great at cutting ribbons and making great speeches to the UN but when it comes to delivering the goods this Government falls short.This Government is incompetent in delivering for Aucklanders. Let me give you a few examples. Around transport we've heard about the light rail down Dominion Road that is costing anywhere from what was to be $2 billion but now is looking to be north of $8 billion to $10 billion. No private sector company wants to be involved with this—that's why they're calling in the super fund and calling it a public-public partnership which quite frankly is a term I've never heard before. Also they've cancelled the East-West Link in Auckland which would have benefited a huge amount of people in east Auckland.Let's look at the economy in Auckland where confidence has plummeted where costs have skyrocketed for small and medium sized enterprises and where fuel taxes are hurting a whole lot of Aucklanders and also small businesses.Let's go to housing where we've had the KiwiBuild project—or what I like to call the "KiwiFail" project. We're up to KiwiBuild 2.0—who knows how many iterations of KiwiBuild we'll have before the Government finally announces that their policy has been a failure.So this is an incompetent Government. They're incompetent in delivering for my electorate in Northcote where we've got a shared path across the Harbour Bridge which was announced early last year and about $100 million has been devoted to this project—but where are we at nearly a year and a half later? Nothing. No business case no spade in the ground; no spade in the ground likely till after the next election. And what at? It's going to cost north of a quarter of a billion dollars for this SkyPath or now it's been renamed the shared walking path project. What else in Northcote? Well when I go out in my community small business tells me loud and clear that they're really struggling. I had a small chocolate manufacturing business say that he's struggling with the rising costs of minimum wages and all the extra compliance costs that this Government is adding on.So this is an incompetent Government but they like to say "Nine long years of a failed Government." But we did do a lot in our nine long years. We didn't just cut the ribbons and make grand speeches we actually got stuff done. And let me just highlight a few of those for you today. In transport we made a number of record investments in all modes of transport. Let's look at the Waterview Tunnel. What a great project the Waterview Tunnel has been! [Interruption]SPEAKER: No rules against irony; just leave it.DAN BIDOIS: What about the economy—what about the economy? Well we had an economic plan that was delivering 10000 jobs a month under our Government. Also in housing we started projects—for example the Northcote redevelopment project and this Government is claiming the credit for that.So this is an incompetent Government. It's great to be on the National team working hard and working on things that matter."
