This recording contains an address and reply debate in Parliament in which the Minister of Justice, Jim McLay, addresses HART's call for the cancellation of the 1981 Springbok tour of New Zealand.
McLay attacks Norman Kirk's cancellation of the 1973 Springbok tour of New Zealand, and offers his support for the Race Relations Conciliator, Hiwi Tauroa, and his trip to South Africa. John Kirk defends his father's decision to cancel the 1973 tour.
