ACT PARTY - REWRITES TE TIRITI INTERPRETATION
But despite a referendum which would test Māori co-governance support, Act's leader said a number of current co-governance arrangements could stay under the new law, including Waikato, Ngāi Tahu, Tūhoe and Whanganui iwi arrangements.
Asked how some relationships would stay while others would go, Mr Seymour explained he wouldn't reverse those settlements because those assets were part of Treaty redress. He added "you could make the argument that actually those assets should have been returned in full".......
