That clears the way That obliterates, eliminates until it extinguishes and a calm new day arises. On Friday 29 November, the old Māori Land Court on Lowe Street Gisborne was closed, and the new court opened on Gladstone Road.
The Treaty of Waitangi, signed in 1840 between Māori and the Crown, is the founding document of Aotearoa New Zealand. The Treaty provides that in exchange for the grant of kawanatanga (governance) to the British Crown, Māori people (the indigenous people of New Zealand) were guaranteed rangatiratanga (autonomy) in relation to their land and other precious resources, as well as the rights of British citizens.
