You heard from my colleague Tāmati Coffey—who is the chair of the Māori Affairs Committee, which will hear this bill—that it's been a long process just to get to this point. And I want to reflect on that before I make my substantive points about this bill. It has been a long process which, your deed of settlement recognises, began with petitions, submissions, and claims to seek redress for Treaty breaches from your tūpuna dating back to the 1860s. In 1878, Arama Karaka petitioned the Government for a rehearing of the Haehaenga block, which was, effectively, confiscated by the Native Land Court, and that was the first of the recorded petitions to the Crown which fell on deaf ears.
