Rurawhe AdrianADRIAN RURAWHE (Labour—Te Tai Hauāuru): Tēnā koe e Te Heamana o Te Komiti o Te Whare nei. I have heard in this House a number of times in the last 3 years this saying:Hūtia te rito o te harakeke kei whea te kōmako e kō?Kī mai ki ahau he aha te mea nui o te ao?Māku e kī atu he tangata he tangata he tangata.[Pull out the centre shoot of the flax where will the bellbird sing?Tell me what is the most important thing in the world?I will say it is mankind it is mankind it is mankind.]What we hear mostly is the last bit not the first bit. So if you take the central root of the flax plant out of the flax where will the bellbird call? Where will it land? So it is a metaphor for—in this instance if you take part of the whānau out of the whānau then it affects the whole whānau. That is the issue that I want to talk about in respect of everything that is in this bill and in respect of everything that we have heard so far because here is the thing: we are coping today with the legacy of legislation from the past.My big concern with this piece of legislation is that we are actually creating a new legacy for the future and it is the wrong one—because it does not deal with some fundamental issues like historical and intergenerational trauma. So let us talk about that a bit because as my colleague Marama Davidson pointed out when our Māori world view and our Māori world is interrupted we get to cope with those traumatic experiences and then they get passed from generation to generation and we have heard it from members in this House tonight.Now that is created by coping with the legislation that we had at that time and right up until now. So it would be a mistake for this House to think that we could take the experiences of the past legacy and apply them to the future because we will just be applying the flaws of those past experiences and thinking that will solve the future. If we do not change now nothing changes and that is my biggest point on here.I want to acknowledge in particular my colleague Louisa Wall for her Supplementary Order Paper 333 because in addressing that issue of historical and intergenerational trauma we have to make absolute decisions about how we are going to cope with what is happening with our families. Unless we deal with the real issues—because I do not subscribe to the notion that the whole whānau or one part of the whānau can develop in isolation to the rest of it. I will never accept that argument. So I feel for those who have had bad experiences in the past but that ought to inform how we behave in the future. Unless we deal with the issues that our whānau are dealing with now—coping with or trying to cope with—and give them the opportunity to be in a position to look after their children then we are just dreaming about what the real issues are.I say to the Minister around the resourcing—it is an issue; it is definitely an issue. It may be a bigger issue in making certain that—way too many of our families are living in absolute poverty. If we deal with that issue then in my opinion we will create an environment for whānau to be able to look after their children. I am going to leave it there. That is my contribution to this bill. Kia ora.
