Our Views: Treaty Principles Bill

Nov 19, 2024

The Treaty Principles Bill is an attack on our rangatiratanga. It’s divisive and New Zealanders deserve better.

Ngāi Tahu leaders stand united in condemning the Bill. We are using our collective voice to safeguard what we’ve fought for over successive generations and to protect our future as Ngāi Tahu.

Te Rūnanga o Ngāi Tahu Kaiwhakahaere Justin Tipa voiced strong opposition to the Bill in this opinion piece: Rangatiratanga not party-political. For more opinion pieces from Ngai Tahu leaders, go to Our Views.

Ngāi Tahu Papatipu Rūnanga Chairs have fronted on camera to express the collective opposition of our iwi to this Bill. This page will be updated with more videos as they are released.
