This bill is putting into law the practice that, as Tāmati Coffey noted, the former National Government had put in by providing for the appointment of Tumu Taio representatives alongside the other appointed commissioners when elected councillors were removed from Environment Canterbury in 2010. One of the major benefits of that whole commissioner process—everything else, I object to—was the fact that the relationship with Ngāi Tahu did significantly improve. That's what I think this bill, and just the practice of having a Tumu Taio around the table, has shown over recent years. But the trouble with the current practice is that at the moment while the Ngāi Tahu representatives are there, they do not have the same decision-making status as elected councillors, and that's what this bill will do—put them on exactly the same basis as regional councillors. They would be appointed by Ngāi Tahu, and Arena Williams has canvassed the select committee's careful consideration of the suggestion by some that there be an election within Ngāi Tahu or that there be Māori wards. Ngāi Tahu has a sophisticated process for ensuring that members appointed represent the papatipu rūnanga within the region, and Ngāi Tahu will use its internal processes to decide who should be the two representatives appointed to Ngāi Tahu to represent mana whenua.
