The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. Heretaunga Haukū Nui A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts (Māori Studies) at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand. Pōhatu Paku 2015 Abstract Relationships with the environment for Ngāti Hāwea sit at the core of everyday living. Everything is connected. The essence of this philosophy arises from whakapapa, mauri, mana and tikanga. Practices based on an understanding of the environment have supported Ngāti Hāwea in maintaining and sustaining whānau and communities for many centuries. At present, key natural and physical resource management legislation define obligations and relationships when working with Māori in this space. In Aotearoa New Zealand, the Local Government Act 2002 and the Resource Management Act 1991 requires engagement and capacity for Māori to contribute to the decision-making processes of any local authority in its operations. This project aims to contribute to the bigger picture around engagement with Māori, and furthermore Māori-Council relationships. This project seeks how effective engagement brings with it not only opportunities for Māori, hapū and local government players, but also the different meanings and expectations that stakeholders bring to inclusive practices and the implications for policy engagement. This study is interested in the processes by which Māori and the Hawkes Bay Regional Council engage with each other, and examines the ways in which natural resource management operations recognize and facilitate hapū values, interests and aspirations under statute.
