1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,880
Speaker 1: I've got a novel private members bill pulled from the

2
00:00:01,920 --> 00:00:04,880
Speaker 1: old famed biscuit, and this is the Copyright, Parody and

3
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:08,280
Speaker 1: Satire Amendment Bill. It aims to protect comedians, critics and

4
00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:10,920
Speaker 1: artists when poking fun without breaking the law. Now the

5
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:13,680
Speaker 1: Green MP Kadi Kata is with us on this Good

6
00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:14,160
Speaker 1: morning to you.

7
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:16,160
Speaker 2: Oh, good morning mate.

8
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 1: Where did this come from?

9
00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:23,200
Speaker 2: Oh? Well, this is actually a bill that has been

10
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:25,799
Speaker 2: around the Greens for a while. We did have Green

11
00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:29,159
Speaker 2: MP Geracus had it as a member's bill back in

12
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 2: two fifteen, twenty fifteen, and so there's quite a long

13
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:36,559
Speaker 2: legacy of this on the Greens. And before becoming an

14
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:39,560
Speaker 2: MP is actually an actor, and so my comedian friends

15
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:44,519
Speaker 2: would talk about how out of date the satire and

16
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 2: parody law was and how styfing it was. So I

17
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,640
Speaker 2: was really excited to have it in the in the

18
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:53,320
Speaker 2: ballot and then even more excited to have it pulled.

19
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 1: Next problem, do you have the numbers?

20
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 2: Well? I do think that members bill should be something

21
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 2: that you know, make a difference for people, but also

22
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 2: can get that that support across the House. And we've

23
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 2: seen that with my colleague TiO Toyona's someone Citizenhip Citizenship Bill,

24
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,880
Speaker 2: and yeah, so I'm pretty excited. And I know that

25
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 2: Simon Brown actually did have a member's bill similar to

26
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 2: this a while back, so I do think it is

27
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 2: a bill that we are going to get support across

28
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 2: the House for.

29
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 1: You know, yeah, is it jurisdictionally challenging given if you

30
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 1: were feend somebody across a line or a perceived line,

31
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,679
Speaker 1: that'll be global potentially, whereas the laws can only be

32
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 1: passed in this country.

33
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 2: That is an interesting part and that's why I'm really

34
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 2: excited about actually getting this burd select committee stage. And

35
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 2: that's like we are coming into line with Australia and

36
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 2: America and other countries that are similar to us. So

37
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 2: we want to make this for New Zealand and something

38
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 2: that really suits our context. So I'm looking forward to

39
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 2: the silly committee stage.

40
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:09,799
Speaker 1: All right, let's see where it goes, and we'll stay

41
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 1: in touch on a car Hadding a Carter Green MP

42
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 1: and at this early stage not on Audrey Young's list

43
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 1: of opposition MPs. But maybe Audrey was listening to that

44
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,079
Speaker 1: thinking hold on, I missed a trick there. For more
