Ngati Tama Claims Settlement Bill Ngati Tama Claims Settlement Bill Government Bill Explanatory note General policy statement This Bill . records the acknowledgements and apology given by the Crown to Ngati Tama in the deed of settlement dated 20 December 2001 between the Crown and Ngati Tama: gives effect to the deed of settlement in which the Crown and Ngati Tama agree to a final settlement of all the Ngati Tama historical claims in Taranaki. Scope of settlement Ngati Tama is one of the 8 iwi of Taranaki. They are located in northern Taranaki and have approximately 900 registered members. In the deed of settlement, and in this Bill, Ngati Tama have been defined as the descendants of- • Whata, Rakaeiora, or Tamaariki; and • people who exercised customary interests in the Ngati Tama area of interest from 1 January 1800. The settlement settles all of the historical claims of Ngati Tama in Taranaki. Those claims include all claims that are founded on a right arising from the Treaty of Waitangi or the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi, under legislation or at common law (including aboriginal title or customary law), from fiduciary duty or otherwise, and that arise from, or relate to, acts or omissions before 21 September 1992 by, or on behalf of, the Crown or by or under legislation. The Crown is released and discharged from all obligations and liabilities in respect of those claims. *1 1 Ngati Tama Claims Settlement Explanatory note Any claims that Ngati Tama may have as a result of any loss of interest in land, or natural or physical resources, outside of Taranaki are not settled under the deed of settlement or this Bill. History of the claim Between 1990 and 1995, the Waitangi Tribunal investigated 21 claims concerning Taranaki Maori, including Ngati Tama, made to the Waitangi Tribunal under section 6 of the Treaty of Waitangi Act 1975. In 1996, the Waitangi Tribunal released its interim report on the Taranaki claims (including those of Ngati Tama), giving its preliminary views on the Taranaki claims. This report was based on the Waitangi Tribunal's inquiry up to the date of the report and was issued in order to expedite negotiations for settlements in relation to the Taranaki claims. Negotiations and deed of settlement In November 1996, the Crown recognised the mandate of the Ngati Tama Iwi Development Trust (the Mandated Representatives) to represent Ngati Tama in negotiations. The Crown then entered into negotiations with the Mandated Representatives to negotiate a set- tlement offer for the comprehensive settlement of all Ngati Tama' s historical claims in Taranaki. In August 1997, the Mandated Representatives and the Crown entered into terms of negotiation to specify the scope, objectives, and general procedure for the negotiations. The Crown and the Mandated Representatives reached a Heads of Agreement on 24 September 1999, which recorded that, in principle, Ngati Tama and the Crown were willing to settle Ngati Tama' s historical claims in Taranaki on the basis of the Crown's settlement proposal as set out in that Heads of Agreement. The Crown and the Mandated Representatives then finalised the settlement offer, which was put before Ngati Tama for ratification. Ngati Tama approved the acceptance of the settlement proposal by a majority vote (98%) of participating adult members of the claimant community who were eligible to vote. On 20 December 2001, Ngati Tama and the Crown entered into a deed of settlement. The deed of settlement and this Bill provide for the final settlement of all of Ngati Tama' s historical claims in Taranaki. The deed of settlement records that Ngati Tama and the Crown acknowledge that Explanatory note Ngati Tama Claims Settlement 3 the settlement is fair in the circumstances. The settlement is condi- tional on the establishment of a governance entity (in accordance with the deed of settlement) and the passage of this Bill. Governance entity Te Runanga o Ngati Tama Trust (the governance entity) was rati- fied by Ngati Tama in December 2002 by 98% of participating adult members of the claimant community who were entitled to vote. The governance entity was subsequently established on 20 January 2003. In accordance with the deed of settlement, the governance entity has a structure that provides for representation of Ngati Tama, transpar- ent decision-making and dispute resolution processes, and full accountability to Ngati Tama. The governance entity will receive and manage the settlement redress for the benefit of Ngati Tama. The governance entity participated in the preparation of this Bill prior to its introduction. Key elements of the settlement package The following summary sets out the key elements of the settlement package contained in the deed of settlement. Not all aspects of the settlement require legislation for their implementation. Acknowledgements by Ngati Taina and the Crown concerning the settlement The deed of settlement contains acknowledgements by Ngati Tama and the Crown concerning the settlement that- • the settlement represents the result of extended negotiations conducted in good faith and in a spirit of co-operation and compromise: • it is difficult to assess redress for the loss and prejudice suffered by Ngati Tama as a result of the events on which the historical claims are, or could be, based: • it is not possible to fully compensate Ngati Tama for all loss and prejudice so suffered: • the foregoing of compensation is intended by Ngati Tama to contribute to the development of New Zealand. Taking all matters into consideration (some of which are specified above) the settlement is fair in the circumstances. 4 Ngati Tama Claims Settlement Explanatory note Acknowledgements and apology by the Crown The deed of settlement contains acknowledgements by the Crown, including those relating to the loss of life and destruction of property during the Taranaki wars, the confiscations by the Crown of Ngati Tama lands, the division of Ngati Tama's ancestral land by the arbitrary placing of the northern confiscation boundary, the inade- quacies of the Compensation Court process, the treatment of Ngati Tama people at Parihaka, and the inadequacy of the West Coast Commissions. The deed also contains a formal apology given by the Crown to Ngati Tama, to their ancestors and to their descendants for the breaches of the Treaty of Waitangi acknowledged by the Crown in the deed. The apology covers, among other things, the Crowns actions that resulted in loss of life during the Taranaki wars and the virtual landlessness of Ngati Tama, and the destructive and demoral- ising effects of the Crown's unconscionable actions on Ngati Tama. Part 1 records the acknowledgements and the apology set out in the deed of settlement. Redress for the settlement of Ngati Tama's historical claims in Taranaki The deed of settlement provides for the following financial, com- mercial, and cultural redress in the settlement of all Ngati Tama's historical claims in Taranaki: • financial and commercial redress with a total value of $14.5 million, which includes- • $450,000 that has been previously paid to the Man- dated Representatives by the Crown as cash in advance of settlement, and which Ngati Tama and the Crown agree will be deducted from the amount paid to the governance entity on settlement date; and • a cash payment of $250,000 in advance of settlement: . a right of first refusal in favour of the governance entity over certain Crown-owned properties in the specified right of first refusal area for a period of 50 years from settlement date: . provision for the issue of protocols by the Minister of Conser- vation, the Minister of Fisheries, the Minister of Energy, the Minister for Arts, Culture and Heritage, and the Minister for Land Information, which set out how the relevant department Explanatory note Ngati Tama Claims Settlement 5 or ministry will perform its functions and duties, and exercise its powers, in relation to specified matters and interact with the governance entity on those matters. Subpart 1 of Part 5 contains provisions for the issue of these protocols to the governance entity: . the appointment of the governance entity as an advisory com- mittee to the Minister of Conservation. The Minister of Con- servation will consult with the advisory committee and have regard to its advice on specified matters: . the appointment of the governance entity as an advisory com- mittee to the Minister of Fisheries to provide advice in rela- tion to specified matters. The Minister of Fisheries will con- sider the advice of the advisory committee, and recognise and provide for the customary non-commercial interests of Ngati Tama in respect of specified matters: provision for an assessment by Ngati Tama on how the Treaty of Waitangi provisions and other relevant provisions of the Resource Management Act 1991 are being addressed within the Ngati Tama area of interest, and for the monitoring by the Crown (in accordance with section 24 of the Resource Man- agement Act 1991) of the performance of local government in implementing those provisions: . an acknowledgement that the Minister in Charge of Treaty of Waitangi Negotiations and the Minister for the Environment have written to both the Taranaki Regional Council and the New Plymouth District Council, encouraging them to enter into a protocol (or similar document) with the governance entity in relation to the interaction between the council and Ngati Tama: . an acknowledgement that the Minister of Conservation has written to the Taranaki/Wanganui Conservation Board and the Taranaki Fish and Game Council, encouraging them to enter into a protocol (or similar document) with the govern- ance entity on specified matters: an acknowledgement that the Minister of Crown Research Institutes has written to Landcare Research and to the National Institute of Water & Atmospheric Research Limited, encouraging each to enter into a protocol with the governance entity in relation to matters of common interest: 6 Ngati Tama Claims Settlement Explanatory note the vesting in the governance entity of a number of cultural redress properties that are of significance to Ngati Tama.

  • Appendix 13 Shelly Bay Cultural Impact Statement
    CULTURAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT WHĀTAITAI, MARUKAIKURU, SHELLY BAY Taikuru Prepared by Kura Moeahu, Peter Adds and Lee Rauhina-August on behalf of Taranaki Whānui Ki Te Upoko o Te Ika and The Port Nicholson Block Settlement Trust, September 2016 STATUS: FINAL 1 Executive Summary This is a Cultural Impact Assessment Report for Shelly Bay/Marukaikuru commissioned by the Wellington Company Limited. It assesses the Māori cultural values of Marukaikuru Bay from the perspective of the tangata whenua, namely the iwi of Taranaki Whānui represented by the PNBST. The main findings of this cultural impact assessment are: • Marukaikuru Bay has high cultural significance to the iwi of Taranaki whanui • Taranaki Whānui people actually lived in the Bay until 1835 • We have found no evidence of other iwi connections to Marukaikuru Bay • Taranaki Whānui mana whenua status in relation to Marukaikuru and the Wellington Harbour is strongly supported in the literature, including the Waitangi Tribunal report (2003) • The purchase of Shelly Bay by PNBST from the Crown was a highly significant Treaty settlement transaction specifically for the purpose of future development • Any development of Marukaikuru must adequately take account of and reflect Taranaki Whānui cultural links, history and tangata whenua status in Wellington. • Taranaki Whānui have kaitiakitanga (guardianship) responsibilities to ensure the protection of the natural, historical and cultural dimensions of Marukaikuru. • The resource consent application submitted by the Wellington Company Limited is supported by the Port Nicholson Block Settlement Trust. 2 WHĀTAITAI, MARUKAIKURU, SHELLY BAY Taikuru Kapakapa kau ana te manu muramura ki te tai whakarunga Māwewe tonu ana te motu whāriki o te tai whakararo Makuru tini e hua ki whakatupua-nuku Matuatua rahi e hua ki whakatupua-ruheruhe Pukahu mano e hua ki whakatupua-rangi Inā te tai hekenga ki runga o Tai Kuru e..

  • Constructing, Contesting
    CONSTRUCTING, CONTESTING AND CONSUMING NEW ZEALAND’S TOURISM LANDSCAPE: A HISTORY OF TE WAIROA Hamish Bremner A thesis submitted to the Auckland University of Technology in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Auckland University of Technology 2004 ABSTRACT The thesis focuses on documentation regarding the historical growth of tourism at Te Wairoa, Rotorua, New Zealand. Te Wairoa acted as a gateway to Otukapuarangi and Te Tarata of Rotomahana which represented an iconic tourism landscape in the nineteenth century. A theoretical engagement with tourism studies and the utilisation of history as an analytical device reveals that the consumption of the tourism landscape is an ongoing, contested, and negotiated cultural construction of place. The history of tourism development at Te Wairoa exhibits the entrenchment of European colonial power in New Zealand. However, within the structures of colonial authority, strategies of survival for the colonised are employed. In this particular case, the strategies include the engagement with Western ethics of capitalism, the manipulation and appropriation of symbols of the ‘other’, and the control of access through land ownership. The economic and social development of Te Wairoa, based on a tourism economy, also highlights the existent tensions in both a colonial and post-colonial relationship in New Zealand. The research further argues that individual tourism sites reflect culturally ascribed values associated with place. As the combination of exogenous and endogenous social, cultural, political and economic forces evolve so to does the production and consumption of the tourism landscape. Evidence for these considerations is provided by publicly available historical material including archival documents, historical literature, contemporary accounts, newspapers, and government records.

  • Whakapapa Back: Mixed Indigenous M¯Aori and P¯Akeh¯A Genealogy
    genealogy Article Whakapapa Back: Mixed Indigenous Maori¯ and Pakeh¯ a¯ Genealogy and Heritage in Aotearoa/New Zealand Helene Diana Connor Te Puna Wananga,¯ School of Maori¯ and Indigenous Education, The University of Auckland, Auckland 1010, New Zealand; [email protected] Received: 22 January 2019; Accepted: 11 December 2019; Published: 16 December 2019 Abstract: Maori¯ tribal and social histories are founded on whakapapa (genealogy). Whakapapa and the knowledge of one’s ancestry is what connects all Maori¯ to one another and is the central marker of traditional matauranga¯ Maori¯ (Maori¯ knowledge). Knowledge of one’s whakapapa and ancestral links is at the root of Maori¯ identity and heritage, which can be re-connected with even if a person has been dislocated from it by colonization, urbanization and/or marriage. The collective experiences of Maori¯ are contextualized within whakapapa and narratives of iwi (tribe), hapu¯ (sub-tribe) and whanau (family). Within the context of colonization, whakapapa as a meaningful epistemological framework has not been erased and continues to connect Maori¯ to one another and our tribal lands, histories and stories. Whakapapa and Maori¯ identity are underpinned by an epistemology based on Maori¯ tikanga (customary practices) that take into account the importance of a collective vision. However, research on counseling with people of indigenous descent from Aotearoa/New Zealand has found that for people of mixed Maori¯ and Pakeh¯ a¯ (European) heritage, it is important to recognize both sides of a person’s family in working on mental health issues. To address the complications of mixed identity, this article is written from an autoethnographic point of view to share how whakapapa and genealogical links have shaped my identity as someone of mixed Maori¯ and Pakeh¯ a¯ heritage.

  • Activity Ideas for Taranaki
    The Taranaki War 1860-63 – activities for NCEA 3 History See also NZ in the 19th Century in the Classroom (NZHistory.net.nz) A. Paragraph writing Essays are an important part of external assessment in history. Good essays are based on joining sentences together as coherent paragraphs that tackle different components of the essay question. A good essay must have good paragraphs. Each key idea in your essay must be written as a new paragraph. It is in your interests that the marker can see quite clearly where each idea begins and ends. It is sometimes helpful to think of a paragraph as having a set layout: a sentence that outlines what the paragraph is about – a topic sentence sentences to support the topic sentence a sentence to conclude the paragraph. In this way a paragraph mirrors the structure of an essay. One reason for using this layout is that a lot of markers will skim read your essay first for signs that you have understood the question and that the material is relevant. They will then look at your essay more closely. Anything you do to create a positive first impression can only help. In preparation for an essay that will examine a significant historical situation in the context of change (Achievement standard 3.5) write a series of paragraphs in which you: Describe the different methods employed by Maori in resisting the attempts by the Crown to purchase Maori land during the 1850s. Describe the impact of a growing non-Maori population on Maori. Evaluate to what extent the actions of Wiremu Kingi can be seen as an attempt to assert or maintain Te Ati Awa’s sovereignty in Taranaki.
