ELECTION 2020: WHAT'S THE PLAN? PARTY POLICIES (MAORI ISSUES) AT A GLANCE
LABOUR
"Tikanga" approach to historical Treaty of Waitangi claims, more time on mandate concerns.
One million New Zealanders speaking te reo Māori by 2040, and every child having te reo in their learning by 2025.
Cutting the number of Māori in prison from 52 per cent to 16 per cent, starting with a 10 per cent reduction by 2024.
Continue talks with all parties at Ihumātao.
Continue strategic partnerships with iwi and other Māori organisations on Oranga Tamariki.
NATIONAL
Settle all historical Treaty of Waitangi claims by 2029.
Ensure every child years 1-8 learns a second language, and make te reo Māori a "national priority language".
Require DHBs to report annually on a Māori health strategy.
National would not get involved in the dispute at Ihumātao.
No strong position on Oranga Tamariki.
NZ FIRST
On the Treaty settlement process the party supports settling historical grievances, but looks forward to the "post-treaty settlement period where Maori and all New Zealanders can move forward".
On te reo Māori the party would provide better support for teachers including scholarships and ensuring academic and professional value was assigned to any Te Kōhanga Reo qualification.
On health the party would see the Ministry of Health take over from DHBs, and a specific unit address Māori inequities established within it.
On justice inequities, the party believes all Government departments should be required to publically report on how their actions are addressing the inequities for Māori.
On Oranga Tamariki, supports solutions "by Māori, for Māori, with Māori", including devolving resourcing and responsibilities to iwi, Māori organisations, and NGOs.
GREENS
Review Treaty settlement process, recognise Te Tiriti as the legitimate version, replace the "full and final" model.
Te reo Māori as core curriculum subject through to Year 10.
Fund primary health through Māori organisations, overseen by a new Māori health agency.
"Te Tiriti justice" at Ihumātao, with any resolution centring mana whenua.
Resource and support kaupapa Māori organisations to care for children.
ACT.
Disagreed with the Government becoming involved with Ihumātao saying it should respect property rights, which it believes the Treaty settlement focus should be more focused on.
On health inequity it would create a stand-alone Mental Health and Addiction agency, allowing NGOs or community organisations to be able to set up services with a focus on Māori health.
On te reo Māori, the party saw no differentiation between school subjects and learning te reo should be by choice.
Abolish Māori seats.
On Oranga Tamariki, the party said it was more important for children to be physically safe than culturally safe.
MAORI PARTY
Establish a Māori Parliament.
Register all Māori to the Māori Electoral Roll and ensure Māori can switch between the Māori and general roll.
Return conservation land to iwi, including camping grounds.
Establish a Waitangi Parliamentary Commissioner.
Entrench the Māori electoral seats.
Reduce the party vote threshold to 2.5 per cent.
Make Waitangi Tribunal recommendations binding.
Return the "stolen" land at Ihumātao to mana whenua.
Guarantee a quarter of Government funding over the next two years to support Māori.
Te reo as core subject to Year 10, restore all Māori place names, including Aotearoa.
Transfer Māori health funds into Whānau Ora.
Ensure no Māori babies are taken into state care, diverting $600m from Oranga Tamariki to a Māori-led agency.
