3. Mahaki Housing Claim Update Ruby Baty filed a housing claim against the Crown in 1993. At the Mahaki Hui a Iwi on 5 March 2017 (Tarere Marae) the Iwi agreed to support the proposal for Te Aitanga a Mahaki to acquire the HNZ homes in the rohe of Te Aitanga a Mahaki on the understanding that: There is no liability on Te Aitanga a Mahaki; Whanau in the homes would have the immediate opportunity to purchase the homes at a discounted rate: the more homes acquired, the bigger the discount. For those who wish to continue as tenants, there was the opportunity for a purchase of their house or a house on their land over a 10 year period through: Receive whanau ora support: which is about empowering the whanau to a better future; and Align with the training and economic development opportunities through Mahaki and the eventual settlement of the treaty claims.

What are we talking about What are we talking about? 700 Housing NZ homes in the rohe of Te Aitanga a Mahaki

An example of an immediate purchase One house in Te Karaka is valued at $88,000. By purchasing 700 or more houses we aim to achieve a discount of 40%. This house would then be able to be purchased by the whanau for $52,800. Alternatively, over a 10 year period, the tenant who wants to purchase that home could either: Approach a commercial bank; or A rent to own arrangement with the Iwi (which would be slightly better than the interest arrangement with a commercial bank).

4. Inshore Fisheries and Marine & Coastal Area Update We need to work through shares with Rongowhakaata and Ngati Porou This will start with a meeting between Ngati Oneone, Ngai Tawhiri (Rongowhakaata) and Te Whanau a Iwi on 25 June 2017 at Te Poho o Rawiri. The aim is to ensure an outcome that sees Rongowhakaata and Te Aitanga a Mahaki achieve the same quota that we have utilised for the past decade. This is what Bill Ruru supported on our behalf back in May 2015. Marine and Coastal Area (Foreshore and Seabed) We deliberately did not file an application as we do not agree with the process that the Crown put in place. We do not want to be in a position of conflict with our relations We will meet to discuss our customary Marine and Coastal area at Awapuni, Waiohiharore, Kaiti and Pouawa with Ngati Oneone, Ngai Tawhiri (Rongowhakaata) and Te Whanau a Iwi on 25 June 2017 at Te Poho o Rawiri.

5. Te Karaka Primary School Site We have received a proposal from Rangatira marae. They are wanting to move their marae to the Te Karaka Primary School site. The current site was devasted by Cyclone Bola. It is now flood prone. They have a strong committed whanau who behind this proposal. Some of our pakeke and our Trust Chair has raised issues of tikanga that need to be discussed. This proposal is received now and will be finalised at the next pakeke and Hui a Iwi. As the Te Aitanga a Mahaki leader negotiator I support: Strengthening our marae as per our agreed strategic plan; Building the reo, tikanga, karakia and waiata at each marae as per our strategic plan; This proposal from Rangatira marae.
