A ballot for a single Member's Bill was held today, and the following bill was drawn:
- Drug Overdose (Assistance Protection) Legislation Bill (Kahurangi Carter)
There were 76 bills in the ballot today, including three "right to repair" bills and two competing ones on slavery. You'd think that the parties might cut a deal on these topics to at least get bills with clear bipartisan support before the House. But I guess they'd rather squabble over who gets the credit than work together on the increasingly rare areas of common ground...
(There were also five bills on renter’s rights, which suggests that it is going to be a priority issue for the next government).
