Martin TraceyTRACEY MARTIN (NZ First): Kia ora Mr Chair. Just a quick call on behalf of New Zealand First. Just a comment on the contribution by the member Stuart Nash who has just resumed his seat New Zealand First had not considered that at all—the argument put forward by Stuart Nash. There is trade in organ donation in the world and also there are different standards of surgery throughout the planet. So I would suggest that the Health Committee—and we think quite rightly—has settled on 100 percent support for those individuals those New Zealanders who provide this gift to other New Zealanders; they should be supported at 100 percent. But I personally and I think my New Zealand First colleagues would support me in this—we would like to be assured that the people carrying out the surgery were of a standard that if there were any complications we could be confident that they met a certain standard and the complications were unforeseen as opposed to perhaps getting a cheap operation somewhere else on the planet. That is an interesting situation put forward by Mr Nash but not something that New Zealand First I think had considered at this stage. I would however be interested in the member in the chair Chris Bishop taking a call. Firstly can I congratulate the member in the chair on his member's bill getting this far. I do not sit on the Health Committee but I am aware of the work that it has done the effort that the member has put in and how vital this bill is with regard to the support. Ms Kuriger mentioned those who pass on who have signed over organs so that others can live even though their families are facing great tragedy. But what we are talking about here is supporting living New Zealanders to continue with their life and to be compensated—well not compensated actually. We are not selling organs. We are merely supporting New Zealanders who provide a gift to other New Zealanders. But I would ask the member in the chair if he would like to stand and perhaps say—as I say I am not on the Health Committee—what consideration has been given to the futureproofing of the situation with regard to 3-D printing of organs. At the beginning of this year actually the first toddler in America had a 3-D printed liver and there has been quite a lot of research done with regard to 3-D printing of organs so far or the possible future of it. So I just wonder whether the member has considered it and whether the futureproofing in this bill referred to by Ms Kuriger and other speakers covers the capacity of 3-D printing around living tissue. I would be fascinated if the member Chris Bishop could rise to his feet and give perhaps a small comment about his knowledge of that area and how that technology and the growth of that technology has influenced this bill that we have before us. Would the bill need to come back to Parliament for example if the leaps in technology that are being made right now with regard to this particular area are covered inside this legislation? Or is it an area that we will need to come back to as a Parliament to consider compensating either the individual having to undergo the surgery perhaps or the individuals who are researching or printing it? It is an interesting area and it is disruptive technology which I think we are going to find going forward. But at the end of the day New Zealand First congratulates the member on seeing a need. There are some areas around encouraging New Zealanders living New Zealanders to provide to donate organs in this way to other New Zealanders. There are some areas of cultural sensitivity that need to be addressed when these things happen. We know that Māori for example are among the highest recipients of organs or in need of organs from other New Zealanders and we understand there are some cultural sensitivities around that. We would firstly welcome comment from the member with regard to 3-D printing and the possibilities of the future for that but at the end of the day we support the legislation. We hope that more New Zealanders will now be encouraged to provide this gift to others whom they may or may not know and that they understand that the capacity of giving an organ provides a greater expanse of life for these individuals. We acknowledge that it takes a lot for a member's bill to be drawn and to get such consensus across the House. Kia ora.
