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... Maori
