Review Panel’s report into Te Ture WhenuaMāori Act 1993.
E te uri o Ngāti Rēhia, te uri o Ngāti Kurī tēnei uri o Ngā Puhi nui tonu piki mai rā ki te pae whakawā, whakaeke mai ki te Te Kooti WhenuaMāori ki Te Roopu Whakamana i Te Tiriti, whakatau mai rā ki tō tūranga hōu!

submitting a further application to the Māori Land Court
seeking advice or continuing with further mediation outside of the Māori Land Court
