IWI COLLECTIVE HAS PLANS TO TAKE OVER MANAGEMENT OF RUAPEHU ALPINE LIFTS
An iwi collective has plans to take over management of Ruapehu Alpine Lifts (RAL), which operates the Whakapapa and Turoa ski fields.
The company first went into voluntary administration owing $45 million but was put into liquidation after creditors voted down various options to rescue the debt-ridden company put to them at a meeting in June. However, the government decided to support it through the current ski season, as buyers were sought. That process ended with a preferred bidder, Pure Turoa.

The four iwi are Ngāti Tūwharetoa, Ngāti Hāua, Ngāti Rangi and Te Korowai o Te Wainuiārua.....
