Te Kāhui o Rongoā also echoed some of these concerns, particularly, again, noting that this bill is not really reflective of an equal partnership arrangement between Treaty partners and, again, because it is not designed to put that at the forefront, it fails to acknowledge a Māori perspective on the natural world. They reflected that in Te Ao Māori it is not possible to own a species plant and they kind of invited the committee at the time to reflect more broadly about how we design law in relationship to our natural environment.
