The second request was to include provisions that give consideration to applicants who are currently before the High Court on Marine and Coastal Area (Takutai Moana) Act 2011 applications or who are in negotiations with the Crown. The select committee were advised that including such provisions would be repetitive of section 6A which is already in the Maori Commercial Aquaculture Claims Settlement Act, and already describes the relationship between that Act and the Marine and Coastal Area (Takutai Moana) Act. The Māori Affairs Committee accordingly, after its considerations, recommended that the Act be passed without amendment. I again thank the members of the Māori Affairs Committee for their thorough consideration of the bill and the submitters who went to the trouble of providing their written or oral submissions to the committee. On that note, I commend the bill to the House.
