In 1987 I graduated from the Victoria University of Wellington with BA/LLB(hons). I was the legal officer of the Waitangi Tribunal between 1989 and 1994. I now work as a private consultant on Maori land law and Treaty issues. I have previously completed research reports for the tribunal on the Whanganui River claim (Wai 167), Parikino claim (Wai 216), rating claims (Wai 284 and others) and immigration claims (Wai 223). In November 1994 the tribunal commissioned me to work, with assistance as required, on various aspects of the Ngati Awa claim Wai 46.1 That . commission also asked me to have 'particular regard' to the tribunal's directions and review of evidence dated 11 November 1994.2 In this work 1 have received invaluable assistance from Anita Miles who. worked many hours to make sense of the Compensation Court hearings and produced the section on the operations of that court. I was also assisted briefly by Kate Riddell, who undertook some initial an:dysis of the work of the Compensation Court and by Janine Ford and Heather Bauchop also provided some assistance with land court records and national archives sources. Harris Martin, of Rotorua was separately commissioned to provide land title information from the land court, including minutes and maps. His work has been essential to this report and is noted on the tribunal record as document 12. I have also found extremely useful the very full report of David Alexander's on the Otamarakau block and other blocks making up the Rotoehu forest. 3 Wai 46 research commission 3.10 2 Wai 46 direction 2.59 3 Wai 46 G4 .. 3 PART ONE THE KILLING OF FULLOON Introduction The Waitangi Tribunal has asked for research to: expand, if possible, on the evidence of the Maori-Pakeha interaction from contact to 1860, having special regard to ideological differences, 4 trade and the assertion of administrative authority. - This follows assertions throughout the claimant evidence that: (I the Queen's writ did not much run in the district at the time of Fulloon's death and subsequently at least until the arrests. By way of corollary it is claimed that all that was done was done according to Ngati Awa law. This was presented as much more than a post-facto 'cultural defence' with regard to the trials, but as going to the heart of the Crown's "invasion" and the confiscations.5 The memoranda goes on to note that inadequate evidence has been provided by the claimants to corroborate this view and "More evidence may be obtainable from mission records, official reports and the like and a general comparison with other places may be feasible." The basic facts surrounding the death of James Fulloon are not disputed. He was a half caste son of John Fulloon and Koka Te Mautaranui, the daughter ( of a major Ngati Awa and Tuhoe leader. The missionary educated Fulloon proved himself useful to the government, having been employed as an interpreter and 'trouble-shooter' in tense race relations situations. When the missionary Carl Vollmer was killed in March 1865, Fulloon persuaded Grey that he should be given a military commission to recruit a company of Ngati Awa to catch the killers. On 21 July he arrived at Whakatane aboard the Kate. He and severa] ·companions were shot to death aboard the ship as it lay in harbour. Some of the killers were from Ngati Awa, his own kinsmen. 4 Wai 46 research commission 3.10 para 2 5 Wai 46 tribunal directions and memorandum 2.59 para 9.2 .. 4 Claimant evidence and assertions The claimant argument in a brief form is noted in the Dictionary of NZ Biography in an item on the life of Te Hura Te Taiwhakaripi, an important leader of Rangihouhiri, a hapu of Ngati Awa which played a direct part in the killing. The authors say: Te Hura and his people attended a meeting held at Tauaroa pa, near Matata, on 1 July 1865. There the decision was made to establish a boundary, or aukati, to keep out Pakeha and their Te Arawa allies ..... The aukati was tapu, a ritually powerful line that would protect the people within its boundaries from harm .. .... Fulloon had been warned at Tauranga not to take his ship within the aukati, but had disregarded the warnings. The ship was captured by Ngati Awa, and it was explained to Fulloon that it had broken the aukati and that he should leave at once. He ignored this advice and for his transgression was killed. 6 In their research for the tribunal the claimants say that the aukati line was a manifestation of a traditional law and followed on from one recently laid down by Te Arawa.7 It is said that "[ w]hile the line was unrealistic it was primarily set under the mantle of the Paimarire Church to protect Ngati Awa lands. "8 The claimants allege that "[t]he fact that Fulloon was Maori and was executed according to Maori custom was disregarded [by the Crown]. He had seriously violated several traditional laws and was tried by his peers according to customary law. "9 No specific evidence is advanced for these assertions. A different interpretation is advanced in other claimant research. For example the report on the Rotoehu forest states that Fulloon "breached an aukati declared by the Paimarire in conjunction with some Ngati Awa chiefs. Instrumental in the death of Fulloon was the effect Paimarire had had on the people and the resultant loss of traditional systems of leadership and 6 ·SM Mead and Miria Simpson DNZB vol 1 p453. 7 Wai 46 A20:32 8 Wai 46 A20:32 9 Wai 46 A20:35 (italics added) .) 5 control. " 10 Theory and approach It seems from the claimant's evidence and the tribunal direction that there are two ways a cultural defence might apply: • If the Queen's writ as a factual matter did run in the region, then Ngati Awa would be guilty - but if factually it did not, then they may not be judged in any event by that law. Presumably the Crown could only ask Ngati Awa whether what was done had been lawfully done, in much the same way as before 1840- the Crown had no authority in intertribal matters. ( A complication with this argument is whether the Queen's writ was not so much a matter of territorial extension, but portability with the person. English settlers, for example, were said to take the common law, suitably modified, with them wherever they went. • Even if the Queen's writ ran in the area, and a murder under English law occurred, because the killings followed a violation of a cultural norm of Ngati Awa, there was a defence to the charge of murder. In either case, the "cultural defence" raises a further subset of questions about the defence itself: • Was a law established? • What was its nature? • If some foreknowledge was part of that law was it made known to ( others? • Was the killing in accordance with that law? It is difficult at any time to say what is culturally "traditional" and what is a more recent invention. Anthropologists would lean to a view that everything a society does is "traditional"llThe safest course is to assess this matter in light of the certainty that "there is no essential, bounded tradition, ... the 10 Wai 46 A 19:23-24 11 See for example "The Making of the Maori: Culture Invention and Its Logic" Allan Hanson American Anthropologist vol 91 1989 p890 .. 6 ongoing reconstruction of tradition is a facet of all social life"12 This is much more so in times of major change. Cultural defences are not new. For example, there is debate in the United States today about whether they should be admissible in criminal cases. The defence has been raised where Native Americans assaulted a person whom they believed had interfered with burial remains. 13 A cultural defence was in fact attempted for the alleged killers of Fulloon when they were tried before the Supreme Court in March 1866. Counsel for the prisoners argued that Ngati Awa and others felt under threat after troops had moved into Tauranga: the natives of that part of the country, feeling they were aggrieved, determined, at a meeting which they held, to establish a line of demarcation, which should clearly point out their territory from the territory of the Europeans. It was decided that a certain line should be drawn, and it was determined that beyond that line the rule of the Europeans should not extend. 14 At a later stage the prisoner's counsel argued that they "had no knowledge of English law, and though amenable for their acts were still in a very different position from that which would be occupied by a number of Europeans similarly placed. They acted, in a sense, as defenders of their own district.

BAY OF PLENTY REGIONAL COUNCIL TOI MOANA 1 Executive summary Many of New Zealand’s most well-known lakes and rivers can be found in the Bay of Plenty region and are therefore known to attract significant visitor numbers annually. The preservation and protection of these waterways are what attracts so many international and domestic tourists to them. Due to the close proximity of the Bay of Plenty lakes and rivers, and their popularity, they are extremely susceptible to invasive pest species.

This report covers the period July 2001 to December 2004. An activity involving the disturbance of the bed of a river is controlled by section 13 of the Resource Management Act 1991 (RMA) and therefore requires consent. However, gravel extraction is normally undertaken away from waters edge so as to avoid any sediment contamination of the watercourse. In the Bay of Plenty region, the areas of high gravel concentrations are in the eastern Bay of Plenty rivers. In fact all of the resource consents for gravel extraction are for rivers located within the eastern Bay of Plenty. Individuals and companies who require large volumes of gravel for construction works and building foundations hold resource consents for such activities. Environment Bay of Plenty’s Operations and Rural Services Department also hold resource consents which enable them to remove gravel to prevent erosion and the exacerbation of flooding caused by build-up of the riverbed.

  • The Sedimentation and Drainage History of Haroharo Caldera and the Tarawera River System, Taupo Volcanic Zone, New Zealand
    The Sedimentation and Drainage History of Haroharo Caldera and The Tarawera River System, Taupo Volcanic Zone, New Zealand Prepared by K A Hodgson and I A Nairn Environment Bay of Plenty Operations Publication 2004/03 August 2004 5 Quay Street P O Box 364 Whakatane NEW ZEALAND ISSN 1176 - 5550 Working with our communities for a better environment Environment Bay of Plenty i Acknowledgements The Department of Conservation (Rotorua Lakes Office) permitted our studies in lake and river reserves. Fletcher Challenge Forests (and its successors) provided detailed contour maps and aerial photographs. Bryan Davy and Hugh Bibby (GNS) provided a pre- publication copy of their paper on seismic imaging in Lake Tarawera. PGSF Contract IANX0201 funded this study. Sedimentation and Drainage History, Tarawera River System Operations Publication 2004/03 Environment Bay of Plenty iii Executive Summary Haroharo caldera has been formed by the coalescence of multiple collapse structures over the last 350 kyr, the latest major collapse accompanying voluminous rhyolite pyroclastic eruptions at ~50 ka. The caldera has formed a sink for precipitation on surrounding catchments, with overflow via the Tarawera River through the Whakatane graben to the sea at ~30 km to NE. Lakes have probably always occupied at least part of the caldera floor, but the early lacustrine history is largely obscured by younger eruptives. Since 26 ka, the Haroharo, Okareka, Rotoma and Tarawera volcanic complexes have grown within the caldera during eleven eruption episodes, confining ten lakes on the caldera margins. Growth of the volcanic complexes has greatly altered drainage paths and ponding areas within and marginal to the caldera, so that the present ~700 km2 caldera catchment area is about half the ~1400 km2 area that drained into the caldera between 26 ka and 9.5 ka.

  • Auckland Regional Office of Archives New Zealand
    A supplementary finding-aid to the archives relating to Maori Schools held in the Auckland Regional Office of Archives New Zealand MAORI SCHOOL RECORDS, 1879-1969 Archives New Zealand Auckland holds records relating to approximately 449 Maori Schools, which were transferred by the Department of Education. These schools cover the whole of New Zealand. In 1969 the Maori Schools were integrated into the State System. Since then some of the former Maori schools have transferred their records to Archives New Zealand Auckland. Building and Site Files (series 1001) For most schools we hold a Building and Site file. These usually give information on: • the acquisition of land, specifications for the school or teacher’s residence, sometimes a plan. • letters and petitions to the Education Department requesting a school, providing lists of families’ names and ages of children in the local community who would attend a school. (Sometimes the school was never built, or it was some years before the Department agreed to the establishment of a school in the area). The files may also contain other information such as: • initial Inspector’s reports on the pupils and the teacher, and standard of buildings and grounds; • correspondence from the teachers, Education Department and members of the school committee or community; • pre-1920 lists of students’ names may be included. There are no Building and Site files for Church/private Maori schools as those organisations usually erected, paid for and maintained the buildings themselves. Admission Registers (series 1004) provide details such as: - Name of pupil - Date enrolled - Date of birth - Name of parent or guardian - Address - Previous school attended - Years/classes attended - Last date of attendance - Next school or destination Attendance Returns (series 1001 and 1006) provide: - Name of pupil - Age in years and months - Sometimes number of days attended at time of Return Log Books (series 1003) Written by the Head Teacher/Sole Teacher this daily diary includes important events and various activities held at the school.
