REPORT ABOUT MAORI NATIONALIST ORGANISATIONS A 'CROCK'
Maori Council calls Corrections report about Maori Nationalist organisations a "crock" of the highest order - calls for heads to roll
The New Zealand Maori Council has called on the Department of Corrections to name names in a confidential internal report naming Maori Nationalist organisations as a threat. Council Executive Director Matthew Tukaki has called the comments "from a few recalcitrant" public servants as a step too far in Maori Crown relations:
"The report out of the Department of Corrections is ill conceived, a flight of fancy and quite frankly lends itself to the fundamental question of just who they are talking about? Maori Nationalist Groups? Are they referring to the Maori Council? Are the referring to the Maori Women’s Welfare League? Are they referring to the Maori Nurses Federation or the Kohanga movement? This kind of nonsense aligned with somehow the threat of terrorism is exactly what divides a community instead of brining it together" Matthew Tukaki said......
