| Summary: | "This publication is a report by the Waitangi Tribunal into an application by Te Rūnanga-ā-iwi o Ngāti Kahu (Ngāti Kahu), an iwi of the Te Hiku (Far North) region. Ngāti Kahu sought recommendations from the Tribunal that the Crown transfer land and assets to them in order to remedy the prejudice caused by Crown acts and omissions previously found by the Tribunal to be in breach of the Treaty of Waitangi. Ngāti Kahu asked the Tribunal to use its binding powers to require the Crown to transfer formerly Crown-owned land to the iwi, some of which was in private ownership. The Crown and other iwi of Te Hiku opposed the remedies sought, as they involved transferring land to Ngāti Kahu that the other iwi already owned, or which had been earmarked for return to them through their Treaty claims settlements with the Crown. The Crown also viewed the application, if successful, as potentially destabilising its Treaty claims settlement programme, both regionally and nationally. The Tribunal concluded that, although binding recommendations were in this case not warranted, Ngāti Kahu were nonetheless deserving of remedy for the prejudice suffered. The Tribunal therefore made a series of non-binding recommendations that it believed would achieve this purpose"--Publisher information. |
