The final reason we are opposing this is, while there is a carve-out clause to protect the Crown's obligations under Te Tiriti o Waitangi, it's the standard clause which the Waitangi Tribunal has said does not fully recognise the Crown's responsibilities under Te Tiriti. So the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade says it does, but then it's the ministry that drafted the clause, so it's a bit rich to accept their assurances that the commitment is adequate.
