Overview

• To provide information regarding

the proposed mandate process for

the Maniapoto Māori Trust Board

(MMTB) and Ngāti Rangatahi

• Determine whether Ngāti

Rangatahi is named as a shared

group in the Maniapoto Deed of

Settlement

• Answer any questions regarding

what is proposed

Purpose of Today

• Crown recognised the MMTB

mandate in December 2016

• Ngāti Rangatahi are not currently

listed as a group in the MMTB

Deed of Mandate (‘DOM’) or

Agreement in Principle (‘AIP’) due

to the Crown’s recognition of Ngāti

Rangatahi as a Large Natural

Group.

• We have continued to engage with

Ngāti Rangatahi representatives

Current Mandate

• Ngāti Rangatahi representatives have been speaking with the Crown and seeking a mandate for treaty settlement negotiations.

• Following a mandating process, the Crown declined to recognise the Ngāti Rangatahi mandate.

• Therefore, it is proposed that Ngāti Rangatahi claims will only be settled through the Maniapoto Deed of Settlement to the extent they arise through Maniapoto whakapapa and that the claims that do not arise through Maniapoto whakapapa will not be settled through the Maniapoto Deed of Settlement.

• If Ngāti Rangitahi agree to this proposal, they will be recorded as a descent group of Maniapoto (‘shared group’ with historical and contemporary affiliations with other iwi) in the claimant definition section of the Maniapoto Deed of Settlement.

Ngāti Rangatahi Discussions

• The current Maniapoto negotiator and

negotiation timetable would remain the

same

• We would continue to engage with

representatives of Ngāti Rangatahi

regarding the treaty settlement

• Ngāti Rangatahi would be beneficiaries

of the Maniapoto treaty settlement

(though individuals currently are

through their whakapapa without Ngāti

Rangatahi being a named group)

What would this look like?

• Ngāti Rangatahi would be able to vote

on the ratification of the settlement,

and post settlement governance entity

What would this look like?
