NEW ZEALAND HAS SOME SERIOUS RACE ISSUES
The following image is an extract from the Auckland Council website which is required to be completed by all companies/businesses seeking to work with Council.
In addition to the usual company info, this section asks whether your business is a “Maori Business”.
.
I cannot even fathom why this category would be relevant for a tender opportunity and evaluation process but add this to the Independent Maori Statutory Board, Iwi Participation Agreements and a separate classification and opportunity for “Maori Businesses” then we have some serious race issues.

Take note Auckland Council: Section 21 (f) & (g) of the Human Rights Act 1993 which prevents discrimination on the grounds of race or ethnicity.
