🗣️ Speech Chris Bishop (National Party — Member for Hutt South)
Time unknown

Mr Speaker, can I also thank you for your ruling and the clarity around that. I think it will help the House.

In terms of next week, the House will consider the first reading of the Education and Training (Vocational Education and Training System) Amendment Bill and the second reading of the Employment Relations (Pay Deductions for Partial Strikes) Amendment Bill. Wednesday is a members’ day, and, on Thursday, the Minister of Finance will deliver Budget 2025.

🗣️ Speech Kieran McAnulty (Labour Party — List Member)
Time unknown

I thank the Leader of the House for the update. Could he inform the House if the Government intends to move urgency following the Budget, and, if so, he might like to know that we have cleared our diaries on Friday and all of Saturday.

🗣️ Speech Chris Bishop (National Party — Member for Hutt South)
Time unknown

Yes. As I’ve advised the Business Committee previously, there will be urgency, and I’m looking forward to having a beer with him on Saturday night.

🗣️ Speech Hon Gerry Brownlee (National Party — List Member)
Time unknown

Yeah, well, I’m not sure I’d be willing to join you—but anyway.

Hon Kieran McAnulty: You weren’t invited.

SPEAKER: Well, it’s all right. This is my place—you can either go or stay.
