- Tributes have flowed for Efeso Collins, a Green Party MP who died after suddenly collapsing at a charity event.
Among the tributes were party co-leader James Shaw, who said Collins had an "incredibly rare" set of characteristics in politics and he had been looking forward to seeing Collins - who only delivered his maiden speech last week - "flourish" in Parliament.
This is that speech.

Enjoy paradise brother, thank you for your service for our people. 😔🕊
Although Efeso had different political and economic and cultural persuasions to myself, I believe that he was a very good man and I am very sorry for his sudden passing.
Arohanui whanau, beautifully spoken courageous man gone too soon. Thoughts and prayers.
This was so well written that you could tell the type of man he was and what he hoped to achieve in his career. A huge loss to New Zealand, he looked like he would have had a bright future in Parliament. Very sad.
Wonderful speech that showed the values of this empathetic man. What a loss that he is not able to continue his advocacy. RIP. Faamanuia le atua
