Transmission Gully named after chief of Battle Hill fame. Who was Te Rangihaeata?
The Ngāti Toa iwi is probably best known historically for Te Rauparaha, the fierce tribal leader and the composer of Ka Mate. But his nephew Te Rangihaeata is enjoying some time in the limelight, thanks to having a new road named in his honour.
The $1.25 billion, 27km stretch of new road out of Wellington – previously dubbed Transmission Gully due to the power lines that run through the area – was named “Te Ara Nui o Te Rangihaeata” by Ngāti Toa on Wednesday morning, as the road was officially opened. It means “the big road of Te Rangihaeata.”.....

Three Waters Co-governance Should Be Shelved Until Co-governance Consultation Completed
If the Government’s consultation on co-governance was genuine, Three Waters would be put on ice until it’s completed, says the Taxpayers’ Union.
“You can’t have a consultation on co-governance while at the same time implementing co-governance over a core function of municipal government,” says Jordan Williams, a spokesperson for the Union.
“One of the key flaws in the proposed Three Waters model is the total lack of safeguards against rent seeking by tangata whenua. Indeed, it appears that the scheme is being set up to allow expensive water royalties and other financial ‘support’ to iwi groups – something the Minister would not deny when I asked her about this on our Taxpayer Talk podcast.”......

“Her response was “To my knowledge Māori have not expressed rights and interests in three waters assets over and above those as ratepayers within their respective communities of interest.”
”With that, whatever rationale there was for putting a co-governance model front and centre of the water reforms has been flushed down the drain and she should drop her pretence that Māori co-governance needs to be part of a Three Waters reform programme.....

ACT's David Seymour explains why he wants Māori co-governance referendum
ACT leader David Seymour says he wants a referendum on Māori co-governance to help align the meaning of the Treaty of Waitangi's principles since it has changed from a guarantee of property rights and a commitment to right past wrongs to something that "pervades all aspects of public life between two ethnicities".
But what is important is when it comes to the boards of Crown researchers, the boards of state-owned enterprises, the management of Three Waters and healthcare.
"Those were things that did not exist in 1840, so by insisting on co-governance for those, the current Government is moving to a whole new paradigm.".....
