Te Kapu o Waitaha Board of Trustees have lodged a formal submission opposing the Regulatory Standards Bill. This Bill poses serious risks to the tino rangatiratanga, whenua, taonga, and future of Waitaha iwi. It threatens Te Tiriti o Waitangi and our kaitiakitanga responsibilities. We call on our whānau, hapū and iwi to stay informed as we collectively protect the mana and rights of Waitaha.
