The Māori Land Court actually has a turbulent history in Te Ao Māori—remembering that this came at a time when the Māori Land Court was put in place to actually individualise titles on Māori land. Collective Māori land that was owned by tribes suddenly had to be individualised, and, actually, there was a lot of pain and a lot of heartache through that system. In fact, I know, as chair of the Māori Affairs Committee, that in the establishment of the Māori Land Court there were petitions flooding into this House of Parliament from Māori all around the country saying, "Our land is being taken. Our land is being taken. You need to listen to us." Unfortunately, this House didn't act as it could have and should have, and much land was taken through that process. We're still making up for it now.
