Yes - New Zealand introduced this policy first.
So the only thing to compare itself to is basically itself. The NZ law that it is emulating is not even a year old, so it hasn't exactly given any data on that in between generation that hasn't yet been created. I'm not saying it won't work, I'm just pointing out that this is the only really comparable law.
New Zealand likely doesn't have an equal protection clause in their legal system.
