 Reforma, so you can follow it, and I'd just like to start off saying Auckland Branch Antecarn at the Auckland Branch is a branch at the New Zealand Antecarn Historical Arts Association, and it's been a collector's club in Auckland since 1965, my name is Miles Chandler and I've been a president of the branch for more than 10 years. Now our club participates actively in community events, that's the Anzac Day Cannons at White Committee, displays at Auckland War Memorial Museum in Ardmore Air Shows, and our club members hold historic collections of firearms and the many stories that go with them, preserving these for future generations. Our clubs made extensive submissions to be able to highlight five of these. Number one, registration of firearms. Registration of firearms has already been tried in New Zealand from 1922 to 1982. It was an expensive failure. Not one crime was solved by the register of firearms in that time. Part registration is already active in New Zealand. From 1983 New Zealand focused on a fit and proper person test, however, a part register has been maintained by police for pistols and restricted weapons. From 1992 onwards, police added a register of military styles in the automatic. Even this limited register is often incorrect. Our club members regularly report that the police register has locked numbers or incorrect firearms recorded. Recently, over 31,000 records were lost from the firearms register during the transfer of the register from police national headquarters to the cavity firearms office. Serial numbers and descriptions of semi-automatics, pistols and restricted weapons were lost for all owners, so your names A to C. Police have denied they have lost the data. One imagines they are relying on paper records from local arms offices and this vastly increases the likelihood of errors. This does not reflect well on the ability of police to maintain an accurate arms register. There are no strong arguments that support registration. The argument that has been proposed to support registration is weak forward or is covered by existing rules and legislation. Anti-guns does not support blanket registration in the same.
