🗣️ Speech Hon David Bennett (New Zealand National Party — Member for Hamilton East)
Time unknown

I was not actually going to stand to speak on this part but, since Dr Michael Cullen is here, I think it is appropriate when we look at—[Interruption] The Bills Digest states that the definition of “housie” has changed and is now: “ ‘the numbers are selected randomly and announced to participants’, and ‘the participants mark or cover the numbers announced on their own cards’ ”. Now does that not sound like Labour Party policy when it is trying to work out student loans policy? That definition of Labour Party policy has now been incorporated through all legislation.

Part 12 agreed to.

Part 12A Government Superannuation Fund Act 1956
