As Takutai Trust, the Māori Commercial Agriculture Settlement Trust identified—and I quote—"As descendants of Tangaroa [God of the Sea], Iwi Māori have the obligation and responsibility to tiaki—to care for Tangaroa so that Tangaroa may continue to care and provide for Iwi. Ka ora ki tai, ka hu ki uta." So events have certainly overtaken us since then, and while the obligation and responsibility may remain, the authority is a little less so.
