NGATI TOA CREATES 'STRONG PLATFORM' FOR MOKOPUNA AND FUTURE GENERATIONS
Mokopuna and future generations of Ngati Toa Rangatira will inherit a significant income in perpetuity thanks to a long-term and strategic investment secured by the iwi.
A settlement between Ngati Toa Rangatira and the Ministry of Education completed last Friday 6 May secures Ngati Toa Rangatira’s purchase and lease back of the land of 40 public schools across the Porirua and Wellington regions.
Te Runanga o Toa Rangatira CEO Helmut Modlik says the purchase of the properties was made possible through the iwi’s Deferred Selection Properties which forms part of the broader Ngati Toa Rangatira Claims Settlement Act 2014.
"The Ngati Toa Rangatira Claims Settlement Act 2014 afforded us the opportunity to purchase the land of 68 public schools in Te Whanganui a Tara and Te Tauihu in recognition of Crown breaches of Te Tiriti o Waitangi and the illegal confiscation of NgÄti Toa land," Helmut said.
"Our initial purchase sees Ngati Toa Rangatira reaquire land ownership of 40 public schools within Porirua, Plimmerton and Pauatahanui, as well as the wider Wellington catchment area.".....
