  • Donald Loveridge (2006) the “Littlewood Treaty”
    TREATY RESEARCH SERIES TREATY OF WAITANGI RESEARCH UNIT Donald Loveridge (2006) The “Littlewood Treaty”: An Appraisal of Texts and Interpretations Introduction This appraisal by Dr Donald Loveridge constitutes a review of publications by Dr Phil Parkinson and Mr Martin Doutré. It was originally commissioned by the then Treaty of Waitangi Information Unit in the State Services Commission, and was posted on the Unit’s Treaty of Waitangi website. Material from that site was later incorporated into the New Zealand history website (www.nzhistory.net.nz) of the Ministry for Culture and Heritage. As a result of this exercise, Dr Loveridge’s paper was no longer available to the public, leaving a hiatus in the ongoing debate about the Treaty of Waitangi and its meaning. The Treaty of Waitangi Research Unit (TOWRU) at the Stout Research Centre for New Zealand Studies encourages public debate on Treaty matters. Although TOWRU does not host web debates, it decided to reproduce Dr Loveridge’s contribution to Treaty discourse, and posted it as a one-off online supplement to its hard-copy publications series. It gained the permission of Dr Loveridge, and that of the Ministry for Culture and Heritage, to do so. It noted that the views and opinions expressed in the appraisal, and the conclusions drawn, were entirely those of Dr Loveridge, and did not necessarily reflect the opinions of the Treaty of Waitangi Information Unit, the Ministry for Culture and Heritage, the Treaty of Waitangi Research Unit, or any other institution or person. Dr Loveridge’s appraisal has been much cited, and the editors of TOWRU’s Treaty Research online publications series, established in 2013, have decided to include it in the new series.

    BAY OF ISLANDS PLANNING LIMITED PO Box 795 Kerikeri Phone [09] 407 5253; Email – [email protected] District Services Department Far North District Council John Butler Centre Kerikeri Attention: Ms Louise Wilson 1 August 2019 Dear Louise, Re: Proposed Subdivision at 19 Lily Pond Lane, Haruru Our client Nicola Cadenhead seeks resource consent to subdivide her property at 19 Lily Pond Lane in Haruru. The subdivision has been assessed as a Non-Complying Activity however, while this is the case it is concluded that the effect of undertaking this subdivision will be no more than minor on the surrounding environment. A Landuse consent is also required for the existing Lily Pond toilet block located on the Lily Pond Council Reserve which will continue to encroach on the permitted 10m setback standard. Given that we were unable to find any resource consent for setback on the Council Reserve and given that we will be topping up this area we have opted to pay for the standard subdivision application fee rather than the combined Subdivision and Landuse application fee. This consent will ensure that the existing toilet block is covered for the setback from boundaries breach. No assessment of any other rules pertaining to the location of these facilities have been undertaken. Please note that Appendix F has not been attached electronically to this application. We request that this appendix does not go onto any public forum given the personal medical details included within this letter. This Appendix will be provided in hard copy to Councils John Butler Centre at our earliest convenience.

Council received mixed responses from submitters on the draft proposal to increase controls on sewage discharges from vessels. Very few submitters commented on the draft Marina Development Zones or the related provisions. Many submitters were generally supportive of the aquaculture provisions. The mangrove provisions attracted a lot of feedback. There were polarised responses ranging from seeking more permissive mangrove removal rules, to wanting most mangrove removal to be prohibited. However submitters were generally supportive of draft provisions when identifying with an operational need to manage mangroves in connection with maintaining infrastructure, services and business activities e.g. managing road sight lines and clearing blocked stormwater channels. Marine Pest provisions were in general supported, however some concerns were raised about the cost of compliance in particular the threshold for in-water cleaning and practicality of the permitted locations.
