A somewhat unexpected stance on the Treaty Principles Bill from Labour's Justice spokesperson.

Parliament's Justice Committee is reporting the Bill back to the House tomorrow - a month earlier than anticipated. 

This means thousands of submissions won't be considered, with not enough time to get through them all. 

Duncan Webb says although he disagrees with many submissions - they still deserve to be heard. 

"I don't like this bill - I hate it, I want it gone. But if we're going to invite people to have their say, that's a critically important thing."
