Yes, we do. I am very gratified, having been to two ministerial summits, by how good they are. I have found them to be very worthwhile.
We turn up as a group to discuss issues that are tough to discuss with anybody else. I think Veterans' Affairs is quite a unique portfolio for a variety of reasons. I find it really refreshing to talk to my counterparts in other countries, because we face similar issues and there's a genuine desire to learn from each other and try to make improvements. I think they've been very constructive meetings.
The second thing is there's a huge amount of history here among the various groups. I find at the officials level and all the way down there is cooperation, support, and respect for each other of the highest level. I can't find any fault with it.
I think we can improve on it. Having been to the United States as part of the Ministry of Veterans' Affairs, we're inviting the next group to come to New Zealand, and I think we'll go around the various countries. In doing so we'll rebuild connections that haven't been there for a long time. It's been a long time, if ever, since a Minister of Veterans Affairs from Canada has been in New Zealand for ANZAC Day. The symbolism of that will be very powerful and will resonate throughout our community.
