We agree with the many submitters who thought that the Government's commitment to Te Tiriti o Waitangi could be more clearly spelt out—in particular, with the addition of the term "tino rangatiratanga". We raised this in the committee of the whole House, to no effect. But the Greens look forward to a generation of children and young people growing up speaking te reo Māori so that a term used in our so-called founding document 182 years ago is commonly understood and is, unsurprisingly, included in our legislation.
