I know that all of the parties involved have worked extremely hard to support Ngāti Rangitihi in their journey towards settlement, and will continue to provide assistance in the post-settlement phase. I want to acknowledge also the Tūhourangi Tribal Authority for engaging with Ngāti Rangitihi and the Crown throughout the settlement process. In particular, I appreciate the steady leadership of the former chair of Tūhourangi, Alan Skipwith, for the contribution that he made in working with Ngāti Rangitihi chairman Leith Comer to reach agreement between the two iwi that supports this settlement and provides a fruitful and positive future partnership together in the Waimangu Valley. Alan passed away in February last year and, I know, is deeply missed by many.
