Opposition to the Ngatiwai Trust Board Deed of Mandate

We the undersigned DO NOT SUPPORT the Ngatiwai Trust Board Deed of Mandate.

The Deed of Mandate has fundamental flaws in that it still fails to allow whanau hapu claimants with affiliations to Ngatiwai to prosecute their claims in the Waitangi Tribunal Stage Two Hearings - taking place right now.

The Deed of Mandate does not support hapu mana and rangatiratanga as guaranteed in He Whakaputanga me Te Tiriti o Waitangi. That the Ngatiwai Trust Board has no PSGE models or structures included in the Deed of Mandate. This direct negotiation process will potentially undermine the current Waitangi Tribunal Stage 2 Hearing process which is underway.

WE DO SUPPORT the following:

1. The claimants rights to prosecute their claims before the Waitangi Tribunal in the WAI 1040 Te Paparahi o Te Raki Inquiry.

2. That a Report and findings from the Waitangi Tribunal is essential for progressing Ngatiwai Wai claims.

3. That at the completion of the Waitangi Tribunal process that Wai Claimants then can decide on a Negotiation and settlement process that best reflects the collective desires and aspirations of Wai Claimants and whanau, hapu.

**** IMPORTNANT ****

I honestly did not think this would gain this much steam so quickly but here we are and the conversation is finally happening. It feels like people are waking up to the flaws here and seeing what is at stake for our hapu and that is really the only thing I wanted to start.

I dont agree on having any Deed of Mandate given to any Trust Board to try to act on the governments behalf. We the people are the Executive/ Administrators of our Whenua and our Rights.

I do not support the DOM. This has been a rushed process with poor practices by the Trust Board that has not been transparent or inclusive of the people. I am Te Uri o Hikihiki

I disagree with Ngatiwai Trust Boards Mandate. Much like Tuhoronuku you have ignored the hapu and Iwi voice for your own agendas. Ngatiwai deserve to have there claims heard.

Everyone deserves to have a voice and be heard, and the Witangi Tribunal Hearings are an integral stage of the claims process. Therefore I oppose the Ngatiwai Trust Board Deed of Mandate. Te Orewai, Tau Henare Marae

I am an uri of Ngati Kahu o Torongare, Te Parawhau, Te Waiariki and do not support Ngatiwai's claim over the Whangarei Harbour. We are mana whenua and our tupuna are on the land. Ngatiwai does not have not met with our hapu on this issue and do not have exclusive rights to our Harbour, the lands and its resources.
