Ngā Kaporeihana Māori, ko tēnei tētahi o ngā
pukapuka ka tukua nei e te Kooti Whenua
Māori hei āwhina i te hunga Māori - me te
katoa e whai whakaaro ana ki ēnei take – kia
mārama ai rātou ki ngā take whenua Māori o
ēnei rā.
Kaitiaki Whenua Māori: He kōrero ārahi.
Ko tēnei tētahi o ngā pukapuka o te Kooti
Whenua Māori kua tuhia hei āwhina i te Māori
– me te hunga e pīrangi ana ki te hōhonutanga
o ngā take whenua Māori.
He rerekē anō te whenua rāhui Māori ki te papa
rēhia Māori. Ko ngā papa rēhia Māori ka taka
mai ki raro i te mana o te trust Māori me ngā
Ture Whenua Tārewa Māori 1955.
E mārama ana Te Kooti Whenua
Māori ki te hononga motuhake a te Māori ki
te whenua, nā reira kei te puritia e tēnei kooti
ngā kōrero kāmehameha e pā ana ki ngā
whakapapa o ngā Māori katoa.
Hāngai ana ki te kopounga, i kī te Tumu Whakawā:
“He kawenga tino nui te kawenga ka whai a Kaiwhakawā Matua Fox i nāianei, i roto i
tōna tūranga hei Kaiwhakawā Matua o Te Kooti Whenua Māori. Ko Te Kooti Whenua
Māori tētahi o ngā kōti tawhito rawa atu i Aotearoa nei, ā, he pūmau hoki āna mahi
ki te āhuatanga o te hāpori Māori me te ōhanga Māori”.
