    I am humbled to be a part of what will be a Government of real change for the next three years. Today I was announced as the incoming Cabinet Minister for Courts and Associate Minister of Justice for firearms reform.
    May I extend my heartfelt thanks to those that supported the ACT party by loaning us your party vote last month. My thanks also goes to those that have supported me personally, professionally and also to my family.
    We have some really good firearms policy wins that we will be working towards. Some of these are straight away, some will occur over this term of Government - they are:
    - Rewrite the Arms Act 1983 to provide for greater protection of public safety and simplify regulatory requirements to improve compliance and pass it through all stages during this term of Parliament.
    - Transfer responsibility for the Arms Act 1983, policy and regulation to the Ministry of Justice, and the Firearms Safety Authority, administrator of the Act, to another department such as the Department of Internal Affairs.
    - Review whether the Firearms Registry is effectively improving public safety, beginning by June 2024.
    - Immediately begin to repeal and replace Part 6 of the Arms Act 1983 relating to clubs and ranges.
    Now is the time to roll up the sleeves and start getting this work done.
    Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing, and right-doing, there is a field. I will meet you there.
    - Rumi
