Nga Mana Whenua o Tamaki Makaurau Collective Redress Bill passed
The House sat under extended hours today for the third and final reading of the Nga Mana Whenua o Tamaki Makaurau Collective Redress Bill, which recognises the historical claims of 13 iwi and hapu over their shared interests in the Auckland area, including 14 of the region’s maunga (volcanic cones), and motu (islands).
The third reading was attended by iwi leaders, Auckland Mayor Len Brown, and representatives from Auckland Council.
“The passage of the Bill marks an important milestone for the iwi and hapu of Tamaki Makurau, Auckland and the Crown,” Minister for Treaty of Waitangi Negotiations Christopher Finlayson said.
The Bill gives effect to the deed, signed by Nga Mana Whenua o Tamaki Makaurau (the Tamaki Collective) and the Crown on 8 September 2012, for collective redress for 13 iwi and hapu.
The Bill will vest the Crown-owned portions of 14 maunga, including Maungakiekie/One Tree Hill, Maungawhau/Mt Eden, Mt Albert and North Head Historic Reserve.
With the exception of North Head and Mount Smart, governance of the maunga will be taken over by a newly established board, the Tupuna Maunga o Tamaki Makaurau Authority, made up of representatives from the Tamaki Collective and Auckland Council. Auckland Council will continue to be responsible for the day-to-day management of the cones.
Four Hauraki Gulf motu (Rangitoto Island, Motutapu Island, Motuihe Island/Te Motu-a-Ihenga and Tiritiri Matangi Island) will be vested in the Tamaki Collective, which will then after one month vest the motu back in the Crown as a gift to the people of New Zealand.
There will be no change to public access to the maunga or motu during or after this period.
“I am pleased the iwi and hapu of the Tamaki Collective have come together and reached this agreement. This is an important day to help conclude the settlement of historic Treaty of Waitangi claims across Auckland.”
The Bill forms part of the individual Treaty settlements for iwi and hapu within the Tamaki Collective, which have either been concluded or are under negotiation. The Collective Settlement recognises the complex and overlapping nature of claims in the Tamaki Makaurau region.
The Tamaki Collective is made up of Ngai Tai ki Tamaki, Ngati Maru, Ngati Paoa, Ngati Tamaoho, Ngati Tamatera, Ngati Te Ata, Ngaati Whanaunga, Ngati Whatua o Kaipara, Ngati Whatua Orakei, Te Akitai Waiohua, Te Kawerau a Maki, Te Patukirikiri and Te Runanga o Ngati Whatua.
