Kupu whakataki Foreword Maaku anoo e hanga tooku nei whare Message from the Chair & CEO Ko te taahuhu he hiinau ko ngaa poupou he maahoe, he patatee The past year has been one of many changes and with that, comes an opportunity Me whakatupu ki te hua o te rengarenga to refresh and set our journey for today and for our future generations. Since our raupatu settlement, more than twenty-three years ago now, we have Me whakapakari ki te hua o te kawariki focussed on building a platform that is stable and solid. A platform upon which we can realise the aspirations laid out in our Strategic Plan, Whakatupuranga 2050. Our aspirations are that our iwi will be strong in our culture and language; be Naa Kiingi Taawhiao well-educated and trained; aspire to excellence and leadership; grow our hard-won estate and care for our natural resources; have marae that are self-sufficient; and be socially and economically successful. This stable platform has a growing asset base and we are starting to see some very positive results. And we want to push ourselves to do more. In order to take a whaanau first approach and realise positive outcomes for our iwi, we needed to ensure that our team and organisations were fit for purpose. We also believe our marae (and consequently our people, our whaanau) are the guardians of their own future; the masters of their own destiny. Investments in our marae and our people will support their needs and aspirations. As a result, we made a commitment to service excellence, capacity building, stronger communication channels and connectivity. Aligned to the principles of the Kiingitanga, we will be realistic about constraints but collaborate to overcome challenges. We will support our whaanau and grow the inheritance we will leave for the next generation. We will seek all opportunities to create a thriving, self-sufficient iwi. This Business Plan sits in the midst of a transitional period due to the emergent development of a five-year plan which seeks to simplify, rationalise and assist our organisation in ensuring its energy and investment is aligned with making a positive difference in the lives of our tribal members where it matters most. As such, this Plan endeavours to ensure alignment between previous work programmes and planning documents to enable us to develop a more comprehensive and focussed five-year plan aligned to the key strategic goals expressed by Te Whakakitenga. There are some great opportunities ahead and we are really excited about what the future holds for our tamariki and our mokopuna. It requires the best of ourselves to create a better future for this and the next generation of Waikato-Tainui. Kia tupu, kia hua, kia puaawai. To grow, prosper, and sustain. We look forward to working with you over the next year. Rukumoana Schaafhausen Donna Flavell 1 Chair, Te Arataura Chief Executive Our values We hold fast to the principles of the Kiingitanga.

The visit was carried out in follow-up to the 2005 visit of the previous Special Rapporteur, Rodolfo Stavenhagen. The principal focus of the report is an examination of the process for settling historical and contemporary claims based on the Treaty of Waitangi, although other key issues are also addressed. Especially in recent years, New Zealand has made significant strides to advance the rights of Maori people and to address concerns raised by the former Special Rapporteur. These include New Zealand’s expression of support for the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, its steps to repeal and reform the 2004 Foreshore and Seabed Act, and its efforts to carry out a constitutional review process with respect to issues related to Maori people. Further efforts to advance Maori rights should be consolidated and strengthened, and the Special Rapporteur will continue to monitor developments in this regard.

  • Ngāiterangi Treaty Negotiations: a Personal Perspective
    NGĀITERANGI TREATY NEGOTIATIONS: A PERSONAL PERSPECTIVE Matiu Dickson1 Treaty settlements pursuant to the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi can never result in a fair deal for Māori who seek justice against the Crown for the wrongs committed against them. As noble the intention to settle grievances might be, at least from the Crown’s point of view, my experience as an Iwi negotiator is that we will never receive what we are entitled to using the present process. Negotiations require an equal and honest contribution by each party but the current Treaty settlements process is flawed in that the Crown calls the shots. To our credit, our pragmatic nature means that we accept this and move on. At the end of long and sometimes acrimonious settlement negotiations, most settlements are offered with the caveat that as far as the Crown is concerned, these cash and land compensations are all that the Crown can afford so their attitude is “take it or leave it”. If Māori do not accept what is on offer, then they have to go to the back of the queue. The process is also highly politicised so that successive Governments are not above using the contentious nature of settlements for their political gain, particularly around election time. To this end, Governments have indicated that settlements are to be concluded in haste, they should be full and final and that funds for settlements are capped. These are hardly indicators of equal bargaining power and good faith, which are the basic principles of negotiation. As mentioned, the ‘negotiations’ are not what one might consider a normal process in that, normally, parties are equals in the discussions.

  • The Misappropriation of the Haka: Are the Current Legal Protections Around Mātauranga Māori in Aotearoa New Zealand Sufficient?
    523 THE MISAPPROPRIATION OF THE HAKA: ARE THE CURRENT LEGAL PROTECTIONS AROUND MĀTAURANGA MĀORI IN AOTEAROA NEW ZEALAND SUFFICIENT? Isabella Tekaumārua Wilson* This article analyses the protections the New Zealand intellectual property framework provides for the haka and mātauranga Māori. Part II of this article defines the key terms of "misappropriation", "traditional knowledge" and "mātauranga Māori" in order for the reader to fully understand these concepts in an indigenous, and specifically Māori, context. Part III of this article discusses the importance and significance of haka in Māori culture, particularly looking at the history and significance of Ka Mate, the most well-known haka in New Zealand and the world. Examples of different companies, both New Zealand and internationally-owned, using the haka for commercial benefit are analysed to establish whether or not their use of the haka is misappropriation, and if so, the harm this misappropriation has caused Māori. Part IV discusses the current legal protections New Zealand provides for mātauranga Māori and whether they sufficiently protect the haka and mātauranga Māori generally. It will assess the Haka Ka Mate Attribution Act 2014 as a case study. Part V outlines the limitations of the intellectual framework. Part VI of this article looks to what legal protections would be sufficient to protect against the misappropriation of the haka and mātauranga Māori generally. I INTRODUCTION Kua tae mai te wa, e whakapuru ai tatou i nga kowhao o te waka. The time has come where we must plug the holes in the canoe. * Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei and Waikato-Tainui. 524 (2020) 51 VUWLR All over the world, indigenous communities are seeking greater control of their culture.1 Māori culture has been suppressed in Aotearoa New Zealand for decades, and now, non-Māori businesses and individuals, in New Zealand and overseas, have begun to exploit Māori culture to promote and enhance their business dealings and sell their products.
