Lee DeniseDENISE LEE (National—Maungakiekie): Thank you Mr Speaker. This is a botched Budget. The economy is slowing down and the Government has had policies and uncertainty and a bunch of failed promises. The so-called Wellbeing Budget is apparently the first Budget to ever focus on outcomes or have joint Budget bids. I don't think so. We are not falling for fluff marketing. What wellbeing really means—and here's what it really means folks where the rubber hits the road—is whether the average New Zealander can pay their bills whether the average New Zealander can support their family and have a bit of money left over at the end of the day whether the kids are getting a good education and if somebody gets sick in the family whether there's going to be access to the medicine that they need. That's wellbeing. That's the basics. That's what New Zealanders want and what they are needing and relying on from a good Government.But the Government has failed on every aspect. The economy is slowing. They can't deny it. We won't deny it. No one can deny that. Job growth is down. So the very first thing that this Government did for their Wellbeing Budget was introduce new petrol taxes—8c per litre to the cost of petrol. Out of everything in this Budget that is the one thing that has the most impact on middle New Zealand—again something that the Government can't deny and we certainly won't deny because it's a fact. Teachers were out on the largest strike in history and the Government had to be dragged kicking and screaming to the table to resolve that. Funding for Pharmac does not even keep up with population growth. These are lifesaving cancer drugs and they're now less accessible because of this Government.Everywhere you look you see broken promises by Labour and no less in Auckland. Aucklanders have been left stuck in traffic because of this Labour Government. They're being made to front up with the regional fuel tax and three separate increases to the petrol tax and they're getting no improved transport infrastructure whatsoever. Where is the improved transport infrastructure? Show us. Tell us. Give us any indication about what you're doing. You've talked about what you're doing.SPEAKER: Order!DENISE LEE: You haven't fronted up with what you're doing.SPEAKER: Order!DENISE LEE: They haven't talked about what they're doing.I'll never forget Auckland Action Against Poverty and their reaction to the regional fuel tax and these taxes. They used the word regressive"—the Government couldn't deny it—and they went on to absolutely confirm that it was a slam on low-income Aucklanders.We've also got—back on the transport topic—Auckland Council and Auckland Transport pulling their hair out publicly because the New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) aren't funding their share of the Auckland Transport Alignment Project (ATAP) priorities. What does this Government say to that? New roading projects have been cancelled. We were promised a new version of the East-West Link. Where is that? Absolutely nowhere to be seen. The Government's wanting to save all these new taxes to spend on a gold-plated $6 billion light rail project to Māngere but I think they're realising obviously that it's a little too hard and the business case isn't stacking up because on that project we've got silence too.We've got broken promises on a national scale and we've got broken promises on a local scale and I'm going to demonstrate how the national level of broken promises is absolutely personal and local to me in my electorate and to the people that I serve. The East-West Link—I just referred to that earlier. Six thousand trucks a day move through my particular electorate. You might say "Well what's that in relation to the country's overall scale?" Everything. It is the second-highest earner to GDP in the entire country that area where the East-West Link is supposed to go through. What we've got is frozen freight frozen trucks sitting idle stuck behind traffic lights congested and it is costing upwards of $35 million a year in lost productivity. That's a conservative estimate. Now what does that do? That produces congestion. That produces rat running. That produces safety issues in my area.There is one particular intersection called Church Street and Victoria Street that is one of the most notorious crash sites in all of Auckland. Now that is directly related to this Government doing nothing and sitting on their hands for a hugely vital project the East-West Link. How does the Government stack up and answer to locals in congested traffic and very high crash rate intersections in my area? Light Rail: there's been a failure to produce anything—anything at all—on that particular gold-plated project. You've got NZTA building a $25 million footbridge very potentially unnecessarily where perhaps—I don't know; we don't know—light rail is supposed to go over the Manukau Harbour. Where is the solution to these big massive projects that the Labour Party campaigned on and said that we would get? We don't have them.Now let me bring it down even more local and personal again. This is a Budget-related issue and one very near and dear to my heart. There is a man called Troy Elliott and his gorgeous wife Tracey Elliott who just recently celebrated their 19th wedding anniversary. Tracey has stage four cancer. She's been told that she has 24 hours to live more than once. She still lives on; she still fights on today. Tracey I know you're watching this; my love and heart and hugs go out to you. They spend right now $8867.63 every three weeks to fund Kadcyla. Kadcyla is a drug that is fully funded in the UK and in Australia but not here. Every time they swipe that EFTPOS card where they get their treatment the person who takes their card from them says "Sorry" but they've got to swipe the EFTPOS card anyway. They've got a Givealittle page going to fund that particular drug to lengthen Tracey's life. That Givealittle page has become their surrogate Pharmac because they're not getting it from Pharmac. Troy is venturing into Dry July—Troy I know you're reluctant to go into Dry July but he does it because the funds from Dry July fund TVs in ward 64 and they also fund comfortable chairs for patients who are receiving chemo. This is a couple this is a woman this is Tracey who deserves much more from this Government and much more from this Budget. What's the Budget context? A measly 1 percent increase in medicines funding. That does not even remotely match population increase and pressures. Why might this be? Well we know that the district health boards are heading for deficits of $500 million at the end of this month. Is that related? Of course it is. Let's not forget that Government members blocked an inquiry into Pharmac back in April. What was that—Brett Hudson: Oh really? DENISE LEE: Yup they blocked an inquiry into Pharmac back in April. The Government does not want to know what's going on—they're burying their heads in the sand. Well they should front up and answer to Troy and Tracey Elliot. To the Government: what are you doing to deliver in your year of delivery? You were left with huge surpluses. You've made huge promises which you've failed—SPEAKER: That's now the fourth warning. DENISE LEE: They've had huge promises that they've failed to deliver on. It's an extraordinary tale of failed promises. School donations to all schools it isn't happening; 10000 KiwiBuild homes a year it isn't happening. What does the Government do when they can't deliver? They reset they recalibrate and in some instances they reverse. Well we are in high gear. Bring on 2020."
