    David Benson-Pope 3rd Reading Speech - Civil Unions - 10-Dec-2004
    Mr Speaker – I move that the Civil Union Bill now be read a third time.
    Today we will, finally, pass this, the Civil Union Bill, into law.
    We pass into law a Bill that is necessary if the government is to live up to its responsibilities under the Human Rights Act 1993.

    Speech: Christians for Civil Unions - 9-Dec-2004
    Speech by Rev Dr Margaret Mayman at Parliament Spokesperson for Christians for Civil Unions
    Last time I spoke at Parliament was on August 23rd. Isn’t this a wonderfully different day from the day of the black shirts? Today, we’re here in hope, in pride that our parliament is about to enact legislation that will honour the diversity of our relationships and our families.

    Barnett: Second reading of the Civil Union Bill - 2-Dec-2004
    Tim Barnett speech second reading of the Civil Union Bill
    Member of Parliament for Christchurch Central
    Chair, Justice and Electoral Select Committee Member, Foreign Affairs, Defence and Trade Select Committee
    Submitters on the Civil Union Bill have described me as a practising homosexual (30 years and still practising, some might scoff), as a leading pro homosexual lobbyist and someone with a very personal sexual lifestyle commitment. It was not in any of those colourful roles that I chaired the Select Committee. I'm devoted to making the voice of the wider community heard in this place, and have for 5 years chaired what I think is a very functional Select Committee. I am proud to be speaking in this debate in the role of its chair.

    David Benson-Pope: Civil Union Bill Speech - 2-Dec-2004
    Mr Speaker, I move that the Civil Union Bill be now read a second time.
    New Zealand is justifiably proud of its record on issues of human rights – it was over 11 years ago that New Zealand passed the Human Rights Act, which outlawed discrimination on the grounds of family status, marital status and sexual orientation.
