The intention of the Crown through this settlement is to restore the honour and alleviate the justified sense of grievance felt by generations of Ngāti Hinerangi and to build a meaningful relationship with your iwi going forwards. The Crown has also unreservedly apologised to the hapū and whānau for failing to uphold its obligations under Te Tiriti o Waitangi. The Ngāti Hinerangi settlement will forge a new relationship between the Crown and Ngāti Hinerangi, and it should be a real catalyst for positive change. It includes a total financial redress of $8.1 million plus interest, the cultural revitalisation payment of $200,000, a co-governance arrangement over the upper Waihou and Piako river catchments, and the vesting of 14 cultural redress properties, which includes part of Wairere Falls, which is a secret awa to Ngāti Hinerangi.
