Leary IngridINGRID LEARY (Labour—Taieri): When I listen to the contributions in the House tonight I'm getting a sense of kaitiakitanga coming through really strongly from all the different perspectives. We have heard about Thomas Cawthron and what he did to show kaitiakitanga to his adopted city. We've heard many stories about him. One of the ones I enjoyed reading about when I was researching this was the fact that although he was a good businessman he was also seen as quite thrifty and perhaps a little bit mean. In fact the piece was quick to explain that he wasn't mean; he just wouldn't give handouts with direct asks yet if people had medical issues or certainly when there were disasters in the region he was one of the first and the most generous to respond. So certainly an astute businessman with a big heart and what a fantastic legacy—his philanthropy and his kaitiakitanga for his adopted city.I'm reminded about that again when I look up into the gallery up there and I see the chair of the institute John Palmer and also the lawyer David McLay both of whom came several times to the Economic Development Science and Innovation Committee when we were looking at this legislation and who were really deeply personally connected to what they were wanting to achieve from his legacy and from the philanthropy that they felt such stewardship over. So I really want to thank them for the care that they've taken because it is people like them that ensure that these fantastic initiatives that get some life and sometimes have to stall or go through processes come out the other side in better shape.There's also the kaitiakitanga from my colleague Rachel Boyack who we've heard tonight but I must say it again; she has done a superb job in bringing this legislation to the House and understanding all the nooks and crannies of it. I can say having worked through the bill at select committee and also just looking at the paperwork now there were quite a few changes and some very technical things to deal with in such an antiquated piece of legislation and Rachel Boyack showed her acumen in doing such a great job to ensure that we as the select committee were across things and could put this into the best possible shape. So what the bill does is it updates and makes sure that the governance arrangements are fit for purpose. We've heard about the High Court orders that were necessitated previously that hopefully won't have to happen again. But also there is the kaitiakitanga from introducing in the constitution in replacement section 3 inserted by clause 6 Te Tauihu iwi member" a position on the board for mana whenua. I'm so happy that Marama Davidson from the Greens was able to explain and perhaps take our ACT colleagues along that journey of why mana whenua is important why Te Tiriti is important in this context. She really made that very clear to us in her contribution. I don't understand why we're still having discussion in this House about things that have been recognised in law since the 1970s or 1980s. Certainly there was unanimous support for that position from the trust board itself so why ACT wanted to bring that into this debate is rather perplexing to me.We've heard about the kaitiakitanga that the trust itself does in terms of the expertise that it has around aquaculture blue technology data science biosecurity and so on. One of the examples that I really like is this idea of seagrass the three-year project where—I imagine that the seagrass is a little bit like gut flora—they are producing it to be able to find ways to clean up some of the pollution in the sea. There's also their freshwater fish management programme and anti-biofouling which I hadn't heard of until looking at this legislation which is around ensuring that there are natural ways of keeping ship hulls and jetties and so on clean from contaminants.We in this House have spent a long time discussing this bill and we have also spent a long time in select committee. When I asked my friends up in the gallery what the messages were that they would like to convey—because this really is their story—they impressed upon me that this is a story about philanthropy and the value of philanthropy. We've heard about that this evening. But also there is the vexed question of whether we should be spending this much of Parliament's time doing this type of process. So I will leave you with those thoughts and in the meantime commend all involved and this bill to the House. Kia ora."
