Cheung Carlos; O'Connor GregDr CARLOS CHEUNG (National—Mt Roskill): Talofa lava. Happy Samoan Language Week. This is my first contribution to the general debate in this House and I would like to use this opportunity to thank the people of Mt Roskill for their trust and support in electing me as the first National MP for Mt Roskill.People in Mt Roskill are the reason why I'm here today. Because I care about them I want the best of them and I want to create opportunities for them for a brighter future. As their local MP it is my job to bring their voices to the Parliament. Since being elected I've been actively engaging with my constituents from all corners of the Mt Roskill electorate across different industries professions religions ethnicities and needs. I'm committed to listen to their voices and be a strong advocate. I hear their voices.People in Mt Roskill tell me that every day they struggle with the cost of living. Families are having to work extra hours and pick up a second job just to meet their needs. But no matter how hard they work there is nothing left in their bank account at the end of the week. Families with young children are struggling to afford the rising cost of childcare fees. I hear you and we respond. This is why this Government is going to give you a tax relief in this year's Budget. The tax thresholds haven't been adjusted for 14 years—14 years. Increases to the current income tax threshold will allow hard-working New Zealanders to keep what they earn. Our tax relief packages will increase the take-home income of 83 percent of New Zealanders over the age of 15 and 94 percent of households. We'll also deliver FamilyBoost policy to support our hard-working families. From 1 July parents and health givers of young children will be supported with a tax rebate of up to $75 per week.People in Mt Roskill are also concerned about crime. Under the previous Government—their soft-on-crime approach—crime is out of control and people in Mt Roskill don't feel safe anymore. I hear them and we respond. That's why earlier this month I organised a public meeting with police to give Mt Roskill residents the opportunity to share their concerns and feedback with the police. We are committed to making Mt Roskill a safer community for all. This is why this Government will deliver 500 more front-line police on the beat. This Government will also invest $1.9 million in more front-line Corrections officers more support for offenders to turn away from crime and more prison capacity. We have a target to reduce youth crime by 15 percent to make our streets safer.People in Mt Roskill also value education. I'm proud to report to the House that I have visited every single school in my electorate including primary intermediate and secondary schools and specialty schools. Principals are telling me that they struggle with teacher recruitment. We hear them and we respond. We will invest $52.6 million to attract train and retain our teachers workforce as part of getting our education system back on track. This Government is also delivering a more efficient healthy school lunches programme extending it to 10000 early childhood kids and saving taxpayer money and $107 million.People in Mt Roskill are also concerned about the broken mental health system. We hear them. This is why we have the first ever Minister for Mental Health the Hon Matt Doocey and we are investing $24 million into Gumboot Friday to include their counselling pool and provide 160000 free counselling sessions for New Zealanders aged between five to 25.Tomorrow will be a great day for Mt Roskill and a great day for New Zealand because we will deliver a Budget which will help our working class. Our Budget will rebuild the economy restore law and order and deliver on public services like health and education. Budget—ASSISTANT SPEAKER (Greg O'Connor): The member's time has expired.
