SECOND IWI WOULD SEE KAIMOANA BAN STRETCH TO 100 KILOMETRES
Ngāruahine iwi is considering adding its coastline to a rāhui on collecting shellfish, which would see a customary ban from New Plymouth to Hāwera.
Along with Taranaki iwi, Ngāruahine also is looking to the Minister of Fisheries to legally ban kaimoana gathering for at least two years, to reinforce the rāhui.
Hapū of Taranaki iwi have already placed a rāhui from Paritutu in New Plymouth to just south of Ōpunakē, except for a small gap north of Wārea where Ngā Mahanga are still finalising their response.
If Ngāruahine join them the rāhui would stretch along 100 kilometres of the coast to protect pāua and other kaimoana from excessive harvesting, largely by visitors to the region.....
