Bringing up baby: New Zealand speaker makes parliament more parent-friendly by char_greenfield
WELLINGTON - As New Zealand lawmakers vigorously debated fuel prices in parliament this week, speaker Trevor Mallard called for order while feeding baby Tūtānekai his bottle.
“There are times when I can be vaguely useful,” Mallard told Reuters, adding that he tried to help care for lawmakers’ babies when possible. Her daughter Neve Te Aroha made headlines in September when she accompanied Ardern to the United Nations General Assembly in New York. “The ability to have, nurture and raise children is a celebrated aspect of Māori culture....and to be made to feel as though that is frowned upon in the workplace leaves Māori feeling like the outsider,” she said.Mallard, a political veteran, and father of three adult children, with six grandchildren, hoped more employers would follow his lead.
