DAVID SEYMOUR: WHY I PUBLISHED THE PRIORITY ACCESS CODE FOR MĀORIThe breathless furore from certain politicians, journalists and commentators about my publishing a "Priority Access Code for Māori" has itself been illuminating. I've done more to promote Māori vaccination than the Government's taxpayer-funded advertising this week. The new history curriculum teaches the next generation that "Māori history is the foundational and continuous history of New Zealand". Three waters assets are to be put under co-governance between Māori and the rest. You may not have heard about the Plant Variety Rights Bill, but it will set up a special Māori Plant Variety Rights Committee. Apparently Māori are born with a special connection to some plants that other people don't have. I wish I was making this up. The Natural and Built Environments Act, set to replace the RMA, will require that all land and resource use decisions "give effect to" the principles of the Treaty. Most of us recognise all of this for what it is...... www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/david-seymour-why-i-published-the-priority-access-code-for-maori/WAZXX34FNEDE5NYY54YQCMBY6E/
