Whānau mā, it's beautiful to see you this evening and to join you this afternoon at the pōwhiri. You'll hear the whakataukī that I take from Mōkai Pātea at the start of my kōrero this evening. But many of you will know that we are not too distantly related, and in fact, our rangatira, our tupuna, is Kahungunu. It also reminds me of familiar faces—as you came through the door this afternoon—of my late father, Winston Halbert, and growing up in Ngāti Kahungunu, we travelled to many marae where he spoke, where you spoke, not too different to this Whare and the kōrero that we are having today. But, deeply and humbly, can I welcome all of our whānau here for this very important kaupapa.
