Kanongata'a-Suisuiki AnahilaANAHILA KANONGATA'A-SUISUIKI (Labour): Kia ora e te Mana Whakawā. Thank you for the call to speak on this the Contraception Sterilisation and Abortion (Safe Areas) Amendment Bill. Obviously we have to acknowledge the sponsor of this bill—Louisa Wall—for her courage in always bringing issues of contention to the House. And then I stop there.I think this bill is problematic and the speaker who has just finished David Seymour shepherded a thing that is now an Act the End of Life Choice Act and somebody chooses to end their life but there's no places that say This is where the end-of-life people go." So the problem is that this is a health issue and it should remain in the health area where the health Minister or the chief executive provide areas that don't say "Abortion clinic here" because it then says that this is a target for the erosion of their freedom of expression of rights.So that's the point where I come from and I want to acknowledge Ronji Tanielu who is the social policy and Parliament person in the Salvation Army New Zealand Fiji Tonga and Samoa territory because he and I have had conversations about this. I know I was here last year when—this bill is trying to rectify a mistake that this didn't pass last year; so it's trying to rectify that. But I challenge the House why don't we rectify it somewhere else where there is no big target bullseye to come and protest. So I think I don't know whether my maths is right what is the length of the debating chamber 60 metres? Multiply that by three why don't you just go the whole hog and say—I want to go back to the general policy statement where the member said "All New Zealanders deserve to have the right to access health services with their safety privacy and dignity protected." Why not? Why not do that? We can end our life there's no place that says "Ending life here come and protest stay 150 metres away from the door." I want to acknowledge the Attorney-General who spoke today and the bit that I got from his speech was that his role is to protect civil liberty. Well I encourage you to continue to do that because I know earlier that you have concluded that clause 5 of the bill appears to be inconsistent with the right to freedom of expression affirmed in Section 14 of the New Zealand Bill of Rights Act and I want to encourage you to that point Attorney-General. I've heard speakers today in the House say "This is not an abortion issue." Well if it's not an abortion issue why is it in the Contraception Sterilisation and Abortion (Safe Areas) Amendment Bill? We should not have a place where people protest if somebody makes a choice to have an abortion. I'm a woman. I've had three children. I'm a mother of five in total—to five children. And I don't like those pictures that get sent to us. It's actually traumatising and it has a lasting effect. Once you open it you can't unsee it—once you open it you can't unsee it. And nobody can say that doesn't affect them.But my point is that we should be providing all New Zealanders a right to access to health services with safety privacy and dignity protected. This bill I firmly believe is the erosion of the freedom of expression. Someone across the road from the House had just said a member just said "When will it stop?" I think it should stop today I think we should look at providing safe places for every New Zealander woman child man every gender there is. I think we have the fundamental right to do that but not at the expense of the erosion of our freedom of expression.Therefore I know I speak for very few in this House this bill will go through into select committee and I will challenge everybody out there to come and talk from that point of view that we should provide safe places for every New Zealander whether you're getting your leg chopped off you're ending your life—SPEAKER: Order! The member's time has concluded. I call the gallant member Chris Penk."
