Now, the worst aspects of these reforms are the divisive co-governance proposals, which give iwi Māori organisations and their nominees a seat at the table just because of who their ancestors were. All New Zealanders want clean and safe drinking water, not just iwi and Māori. There is no rationale for continuing with the co-governance nonsense. Nanaia Mahuta, the Minister, has herself admitted that Māori have not expressed rights and interests in three waters assets above those of ratepayers in their respective communities of interest. There it is, Minister; you have no justification for pursuing co-governance as part of this reform.
