1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:01,000
Speaker 1: Bread.

2
00:00:01,280 --> 00:00:04,440
Speaker 2: So Parliament's Privileges Committee has had a hearing today. This

3
00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:06,840
Speaker 2: is on the Treaty Principal's Bill, and the hucker and

4
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:09,680
Speaker 2: Party Marley didn't turn up. And then they held a

5
00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:12,920
Speaker 2: press conference separate to this. Separate to this, they held

6
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:15,480
Speaker 2: a press conference announcing that they're going to hold their

7
00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 2: own hearing.

8
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:20,400
Speaker 3: So we will hold an alternative, independent hearing here at

9
00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:24,400
Speaker 3: Parliament on Wednesday, the sentence of May. And this was

10
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:27,400
Speaker 3: the original date that we had been requesting, and we

11
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 3: will make sure that you're all aware of the details.

12
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:32,519
Speaker 2: David Seamen was the AT Party leader. He's the one

13
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:36,240
Speaker 2: the hacker was directed at. He is with me now, Hi, David, Hey, Ryan,

14
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:39,560
Speaker 2: So what do you think the punishment punishment should be

15
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 2: because we don't know what the committee is going to

16
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 2: say yet, but what should the punishment be if you

17
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:43,519
Speaker 2: don't turn up?

18
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:48,559
Speaker 1: Well, it's up to the Privileges Committee and I'm not

19
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 1: trying to influence them, but I hope they listened to zb.

20
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 1: The Privileges Committee should make an interim report to the

21
00:00:55,920 --> 00:01:00,319
Speaker 1: House of Representatives, that's the full Parliament, and say we

22
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:05,200
Speaker 1: are finding these people uncooperative with our procedures and we

23
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: ask that the House resolve that they be suspended without

24
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 1: pay until such a time as the front to the

25
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:16,399
Speaker 1: Committee and comply with its request. A very simple thing

26
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 1: to do, because what you just heard is a group

27
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 1: of people who will continue to undermine the institution of

28
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 1: Parliament and therefore all of those New Zealanders. She's the

29
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 1: overwhelming majority of New Zealanders from every background, who actually

30
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 1: are pretty grateful to live in one of the most

31
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:42,960
Speaker 1: successful parliamentary democracies in human history. They're something there knows

32
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,680
Speaker 1: that all of us, and they should be told in

33
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: no uncertain terms, you're certainly not going to keep taking

34
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 1: your seat in the House and get paid well, you

35
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 1: can't respect the House's procedures, just as anyone else in

36
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 1: any workplace would face consequences for behaving this way.

37
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 2: I had to argue with that. David Seymour at Hardy

38
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:03,520
