What’s going on?
The Treaty Principles Bill has now had its first reading and has been sent to the Justice Select Committee
Now is the time to make submissions!
Christopher Luxon says he will “not support” the bill past select committee. This implies that National will vote against it at the second reading next year.
David Seymour reckons he can change the Prime Minister’s mind and that National will support the bill to become an Act of Parliament.
ACT wants to put the bill to a binding referendum before it becomes law, and are starting that process already.
