Can I thank the Māori Affairs Committee and the submitters for their time and contribution to the bill. The committee received 10 written submissions and six oral submissions—the majority of whom were from Māori groupings. The Māori Affairs Committee heard that the current provisions of the Act prevent Te Ohu Kaimoana from delivering aquaculture settlement assets; this is due the inability of iwi in those regions to reach agreement between themselves in accordance with the Act. This is partly because some iwi don't have the required governance structures to participate in regional negotiation. It's also partly because some iwi are unwilling to participate in those negotiations, from their perspective, as a matter of principle. The Māori Affairs Committee agreed there was a significant risk of similar situations occurring in future settlement processes if we don't make the change in this bill.
