Now, the Government needs to first settle Māori land tenure issues through the TTWM Act 1993 before addressing appropriately these rate issues. Also we see that Labour, the Greens, and New Zealand First opposed Te Ture Whenua Maori Bill in 2017. I quote this: Mr Kelvin Davis said, "There has not been a case for change as to why the 1993 Act does not work because … there are any number of Māori trusts and incorporations that are doing perfectly fine. They are doing very well. We have got a $40 billion Māori economy under this Act,"—this is what Kelvin Davis said during the first reading of the bill. So Labour opposed the bill because they felt it did not help small Māori land owners. The new bill does not distinguish between smaller or larger Māori land owners. So it gives a general rating exemption to all Māori land.
