Whanau a Apanui draws up aukati line
Eastern Bay of Plenty iwi Te Whānau ā Apanui is considering closing off its borders to stop the spread of Covid-19.
Raukokore chair Willie Te Aho says the idea will be discussed by the 12 hapū this afternoon.
He says to protect kaumatua, people will be able to travel through but not stay.
The prohibition will even apply to tribal members like himself who live outside the rohe which is why he is joining the hui by Zoom technology.
"I’m urging that they go stronger and actually block our borders and reinforce this on our tribal boundaries so people know clearly what's at stake for us in Te Whānau ā Apanui and the 12 hapū that reside there," Mr Te Aho says......

Māori and Pacific people already carry the heaviest burden of deprivation and disease and going on past history, the pandemic will hit marginalised communities hardest......

Academy blesses, names new aircraft
The New Zealand Airline Academy celebrated the arrival of two new aircraft at Oamaru Airport on Monday.
The two Tecnam P2008 aircraft, each worth about $400,000, were blessed and given Maori names at a special ceremony, attended by pastors Eugen Dupu, Damien Goodsir and Norm MacLeod, Waitaki Mayor Gary Kircher and New Zealand Airline Academy students and staff.
Mr Kircher suggested the two new aircraft were given Maori names and, at Monday’s event, one was dubbed Te Waka Whakatairanga, which meant elevation, to be lifted higher or promotion.
The second was called Te Waka Rongopai, which translated to “you hear its sound long before it arrives and also, word of (the company) travels everywhere and it is always good”, Mr Kircher said......

New pandemic group says Māori 'left out' of planning
Health experts are so worried by the lack of coronavirus planning for Māori by the government, they have formed their own group to coordinate a nationwide response.
Te Rōpu Whakakaupapa Uruta is critical of the government's national response to the pandemic.
One of its three co-leaders, Dr Rawiri Jansen, said the government is making plans for the general population. He said Māori need their own specific plan, not just in health but across all sectors.
"Māori are being left out. Again," said Jansen. "We assert that an equity lens needs to be applied to all aspects of pandemic response planning, across the whole of government.
Jensen said the government has ignored its Treaty of Waitangi obligation to partner with Māori in their coronavirus response planning.....
