The bill of rights assessment from the Attorney-General does conclude that in the context of the provisions within this bill, no other person or groups can be considered to be in comparable circumstances to Ngāi Tahu, and no person or groups will be materially disadvantaged by the passing of the bill. The result of this assessment is that section 19 of the New Zealand Bill of Rights Act is not engaged, and the bill appears to be consistent with the rights and freedoms affirmed in the New Zealand Bill of Rights Act.
