Tirohanga tātari o te tiaki whenua
E āhei ana te kaitiaki ki te tuku tono ki te
Kooti Whenua Māori mō te tirohanga tātari
o te tiaki whenua i roto i ngā tau e rima mai
13
14
i te tīmatanga o te tiaki whenua, ā, i muri
ake i tērā, i roto i ngā tau e rima, ki te tohua
rānei e te kooti.
I mahara ake au ki tētahi hui mō Te Hunga Rōia Māori o Aotearoa i te tau rua mano, tekau ma rima, i konei nei, i Waitangi, i tukuna rā e Tā Kaiwhakawā Joe Williams tētahi pātai ki te hunga rā, Can you see the island?
Ka
whakamahia tēnei wāhanga ture, hei tuku 7 i
te whare ki raro i te tāne, te hoa wahine, me
ngā hoa moe, hei kairīhi hono 8, kairīhi ōrite 9,
nā te ōrite o ngā hea.
Mēnā, ka hipa te rima tau, kāre anō kia
whakamahia te whenua hei kāinga noho,
ka āhei te Kooti Whenua Māori ki te
whakakāhore i te whenua whakatū whare,
me te whakahau anō kia:
• whakahokia te whenua, ki tērā i mua o te
tono, ānō nei kāre noa iho he tono
• me tuku te mana whenua ki tētahi atu,
me kī, ka tukua...
I te nuinga o ngā wā ka tirohia anō e te
kaiwhakahaere ngā take o te kooti, me te
kaituku tono, ngā whakaritenga anō o te
tono, nā tēnei me haere te kaituku pānui ki
te kooti tekau mā rima meneti i mua atu i te
tīmatanga o tana keehi.
