OPPOSITION TO TE RUNANGA O NGATI WHATUA SETTLEMENT

We the undersigned do not support the Ngati Whatua AIP OR; Deed of Mandate OR; Settlement Package.

We oppose for the following reasons:

1. These negotiations have fundamental flaws and do not have the support of ALL affected hapu, marae and WAI claimants;
2. The process taken by the Crown and Te Runanga o Ngati Whatua compromise our tino rangatiratanga as guaranteed in Te Tiriti o Waitangi.

ACTION: We require that demonstrable consent of ALL affected hapu, marae and WAI claimants is gained before these negotiations progress any further.

SOME BACKGROUND: Te Runanga o Ngati Whatua hold a Crown recognised mandate to negotiate full and final settlement for ALL the Crown's breaches of Te Tiriti o Waitangi 1840 and include in their negotiations the following:

- Kaipara Moana Settlement

- Whangarei Harbour Rohe Moana

- Right of First Refusal over new fisheries quota

- Option to purchase properties in Marsden Point and North Shore

- Area of Interest

NOTE: If you sign the petition you are not opposing whakapapa and whanaungatanga with Ngati Whatua. This petition supports a move to hold Te Runanga o Ngati Whatua and The Crown accountable to Te Tiriti o Waitangi and He Whakaputanga.
