Māori Strategy consultation completed

A series of nationwide consultation hui were held in October, as part of the implementation plan of Te Rautaki Māori me te mahere Whakatinana a te Mana Tohu Mātauranga o Aotearoa (Te Rautaki Māori).

Hui were held in Kaikohe, Auckland, Whakatane, Rotorua, Wanganui, Porirua and Christchurch.

The consultation hui had two purposes firstly, to discuss and gather feedback on the draft Terms of Reference for the Kaitiaki group and the Māori Partnership Forum, as outlined in Key actions 10 and 12 of Te Rautaki Māori and secondly, to advise the nominations process for these groups.

Chief Advisor Māori, Alex Bidois says the feedback received during the consultation Hui was positive.

A selection panel has been convened to evaluate the nominations for membership of the two new groups. The target date for establishment of the new groups is the end of February 2008.
