[The Crown acknowledges that—in 1866 it issued an unreasonable ultimatum demanding the surrender of all those inside Ōmarunui, including individuals from Ngāti Matepū and Ngāti Māhū, rather than continue negotiations to preserve the peace; and Crown forces endangered the lives of all men, women, and children inside the pā by attacking Ōmarunui when the ultimatum expired; and Crown forces killed more than 30 people who were defending themselves at Ōmarunui and during another Crown attack at Herepoho; and the attacks at Ōmarunui and Herepoho were an injustice and breached the Treaty of Waitangi and its principles.]
