Muller ToddTODD MULLER (National—Bay of Plenty): Thank you Mr Speaker. I have just recently been texted by my son who said Please make sure when you speak that you talk about how excited the Muller family are that level 2 kicks off tomorrow." And I will acknowledge that the Muller family are excited. The eldest is keen to go to the mall my son is keen for basketball with his mates and my youngest wants to have a sleepover and my wife quite different to Chris Hipkins' assessment can't wait till Monday when Aquinas College opens the doors. I do need to add to that that our family and indeed many families across this country do acknowledge the job well done of this Government of the health department and its senior officials and health workers and of an Opposition which asked the right questions through the process. It has been a collective achievement that we are all rightly proud of.But tomorrow we walk into a new New Zealand: a country with no international tourists a country with a massive challenge that sits in front of us. We are in a moment which historians will look back on as a crisis of this generation in terms of the scale of the economic costs that we now have to deal with as a country: 500000 small businesses teetering on survival a thousand people a day unemployed and Treasury saying that that will continue for the next 150 days. Tomorrow we will see the Government's response to that crisis. It is their day; we will have numbers bandied around that are so eye-wateringly large that perhaps their impact will actually be lost for a moment. But there will be a sea of deficits sitting in front of us—debt incurred by this generation and the next and potentially the next.The great test that will sit in front of this Government is: now that the country has broadly held the view that you have got us through collectively this health crisis do you now have the capacity to get us through the largest economic crisis of a generation? They will fail the test. The reason they will fail the test is there simply is not enough capacity in this Government to create an economic and commercial coherence in terms of their response. You simply need to look at Cabinet. There are three or four heavy lifters and 15 empty seats and that is what the country sees. That has been the amplification of the last few weeks. They smile and laugh but they know it's true because there is a complete lack of commercial experience that sits behind this Government. And we will see it tomorrow when they look and present to us their prescription for New Zealand. There won't be at the core of their focus a deep understanding of what those 500000 small businesses need. They see it through the lens of expanding the Government support in terms of more debt. There's no understanding that what they needed throughout the last few weeks was cash and cash now and support—and not only support but a vision and a capacity to articulate a future that gave them confidence.When you have 50000 tourist operators standing up and saying "Where's the leadership? Where's the leadership? Where's the vision? Where's the ability to be able to partner with us as the small businesses of this country and help us to get up off the canvas?"—there is no capacity for this Government to do this. Look at their track record. The idea that you would hand to Phil Twyford a man who is synonymous with the failure of housing the failure of transport—that he now is the face of economic development in this country when we are in the greatest crisis of a generation is absurd. The fact that Willie Jackson whose contributions to this House are often rambling and personal has the ability to grip the fact that from an employment Minister we have a huge challenge in front of us in terms of lifting people's assurance and confidence and skills and resilience—it is a whole-of-Government a systemic approach that is required. And on every test apart from empathy on every test apart from kindness on every test around competence and coherence and commercial progress this Government has failed and we'll see it again tomorrow."
