Bishop ChrisCHRIS BISHOP (National—Hutt South): Well I think that's a heroic bit of optimism by the previous speaker Meka Whaitiri. I'm not sure that wheel-clamping operators are going to welcome this piece of legislation because what it does is allow the maximum wheel-clamping fee to be $100. I do not think that those people who currently essentially extort money out of people on the basis that they've parked for five seconds too long in a private parking spot are going to welcome it and frankly I think that's a good thing.Another speaker made mention of the fact that everyone in their electorates has examples of cowboy clampers—the alliteration is a happy coincidence isn't it for this one—cowboy clampers who essentially charge extremely high fees. I think every electorate MP would have an example of that; I certainly do in Hutt South. It's an issue that when we were last in Government I actually looked at myself introducing a bill similar to what we have here. That didn't happen but I do welcome the legislation that's been brought forward which National is supporting.I suppose on the one hand you could say you know good on people for taking advantage of a business opportunity. You know if you park on someone's private land it's not your land; people who own private property are entitled to set the conditions upon the terms that you come on to that property and if you stay too long a minute too long you've given up your licence to be on that property and the person whose property you're on is entitled to ask you to leave and if you don't leave then charge you money. That would be the sort of arch-libertarian view of the world and I suppose that has some plausibility to it.But I suppose the real point the simple reality is that these parking spaces are for most people not anywhere different to parking on the street. They're not any different to parking in a public car park provided by the local council for example. Typically what they are are three or four parks sometimes next to public car parks operated by the council. People can't distinguish because the signage is often totally deficient and people come back to their car—they think they've probably parked in a public car park and they've got away with it—and they find that actually they've parked on Mr Smith's private car park and Mr Smith has decided to charge $700 for being over the limit. If you don't pay you're stuffed basically. So I think this is an attempt to deal with what is clearly a practical real problem for people and I think it's a good step forward.Some countries actually ban private wheel clamping. The bill doesn't go that far. I think that's something worth thinking about. Some countries do it—I think in various parts of Australia. I think in some states of Australia it is just banned outright; you can't do it. I think that's something that's worth discussing. But I think generally this is a good step forward. I think every electorate MP is going to welcome it. Good on Minister Faafoi for getting on with the job. He's a man who's developed a well-deserved reputation as a doer in a Government that is generally incompetent at delivering.Barbara Kuriger: He's a lone soldier!CHRIS BISHOP: Ha! He's a lone soldier! He's a lone ranger—Faafoi the Lone Ranger! He's a man who should have been promoted a lot earlier but good on him for taking action. Thank you very much.
