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

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
