The Māori Affairs Committee—best laid plans were put aside with this imposition on all of our lives called COVID. Our intention was to travel and to be amongst the people of Ngāti Rangitihi at the marae at Matatā. When COVID lifted and the restrictions permitted, I seized the opportunity in my role as spokesperson for Māori development with the National Party to travel through the motu and to travel for my first time through the coastal region of Matatā. I observed where the marae is and I look forward to the day that I will be able to stand on the marae ātea. I was not able to, with my colleagues, be present amongst that, but we felt the mamae, we felt the grievance, and we paid due to ensure that this bill passes through into law. I also seized the opportunity in my Māori development role to travel to the—I will reference and turn to the brochure—the Waimangu Volcanic Valley, where I was accompanied by Tania Tapsell to meet with Leith Comer, kaumātua Kenneth Raureti, and general manager David Blackmore, to be present on the area in the rohe and on the whenua and to feel and to hear the stories.
