Scoop Full Coverage of Anti-Smacking Bill

Article: Scoop Full Coverage

Section 59: Maori Party Offers Critical Votes For Repeal - We have been asked to support a Bill, as amended by the select Committee. A Bill which is motivated by the need to protect children. We believe that Parliament has an important role in dispelling the illusion that violence is normal and acceptable. We believe that statements of aspiration are important in encouraging whanau to create and maintain violence-free homes. We welcome the initiative of Sue Bradford in this regard. See...
