Gen Zero critical of council’s relationship with iwi
Generation Zero believes the Otago Regional Council have treated Kai Tahu like a stakeholder rather than a partner.
The national, youth-led climate organisation told ORC councillors during annual plan hearings conducted via video conferencing yesterday that local iwi’s voice had been diminished, among other stakeholders.
Otago regional council chairwoman Marian Hobbs asked the presenters, Jen Coatham and Pippa Chang, if iwi should be prioritised over other parties, including Fish & Game, to which they responded "yes".
"There is specific obligations on all of government under Te Tiriti o Waitangi to work in partnership," Ms Coatham said......

Concerns govt lacks vision for Māori economy post Covid
Māori business advisors are concerned the government has given no clear direction for the future of the Māori economy.
Before Covid-19, the Māori economy was worth more than $50 billion.
But the pandemic has hurt many Māori businesses and some say the government should have a plan to support them by now.
In April, the government set aside $1 million to run an 0800 number for Māori businesses to access professional advice. By Tuesday, it had received 149 phone calls......

Marlborough iwi fear council plan fails to protect 'potentially hundreds' of sacred sites
Potentially "hundreds" of historic Māori sites have been left unprotected in Marlborough's new environment plan, iwi say.
The Proposed Marlborough Environment Plan lists nine significant tangata whenua (local) iwi sites that cannot be demolished, removed or partially destroyed.
But the plan does not include or protect unregistered heritage sites, argue four iwi, who have each launched an appeal against the plan.
The iwi were Rangitāne o Wairau, Te Rūnanga o Ngāti Kuia, Te Ātiawa o Te Waka-a-Māui Trust and Te Rūnanga o Kaikōura and Te Rūnanga o Ngāi Tahu (Ngāi Tahu).....

Māori Land Court rules in favour of activists in fight over polluted Lake Horowhenua
Two activists in a long-running fight over badly polluted Lake Horowhenua have had a big win in court.
The Māori Land Court has ruled in favour of Phil Taueki and Charles Rudd.
The two have battled the lake's trustees elected to represent other beneficiary owners, and Taueki has had high-profile clashes with the district council.
Now the judge, in a 100-page ruling, says the trust could have got on with projects to try to protect the lake, if it had properly followed its own rules, but it did not.
Rudd's lawyer Linda Thornton said it was a landmark on a long road.
"Ultimately there were issues about protecting wāhi tapu and significant sites ... and my client was concerned about how decisions were being made.
"In the Māori land law, Te Ture Whenua Māori, there is a provision that talks about the role of the court in protecting an oppressed minority against an unreasonable majority and vice versa.......

The New Zealand Taxpayers’ Union can reveal that COVID-19 support funding for general practice clinics was allocated significantly on the basis of enrolled patients’ ethnicities.
Information obtained under the Official Information Act 1982 showed that organisations received $4.50 in funding per Māori or Pacific patient with any other ethnicities worth only $1.50 – only a third of the amount.
Elderly and individuals from low socio-economic areas were valued at the increased Māori/Pacific amount.
Taxpayers’ Union spokesman Jordan Williams says, “So much for the Government’s slogan ‘we’re all in this together’. Skin colour shouldn’t be the proxy for how much money the Government allocates for healthcare.”

Tourists still barred from Cape Reinga despite drop to Alert Level 2
Despite dropping to Alert Level 2, one of the country's top tourism spots in Northland remains blocked off by iwi.
Dozens of tourists are being turned away from Cape Reinga by local iwi, despite tourism and hospitality in the region trying to encourage visitors to the area.
Northland MP Matt King made a video of a confrontation that took place with iwi as he tried to access the location.
“It's my customary rights and I’m prepared to knock you out if you pass that gate,” a person blocking access says in the video.
“Northland is a beautiful place with beautiful people in it and we've got a lot to offer and I just want to see the roadblocks taken down and us just getting back to business,” Mr King says.
Ngāti Kuri says that is what it wants too, but first the sacred site must be cleansed.

You couldn’t make this stuff up! Now the Treaty of Waitangi requires medical schools to have the same proportion of Maori students as that of the population? A strange interpretation of a very simple treaty. And it is not up to medical schools to decide our medical workforce policy; their job is to implement a government policy, not to make one.
