The key is not to allow ourselves to become intoxicated by the euphoria of the million-dollar signs, and look at the gains from a perspective of proportionality. Last year, Vote Māori received 0.3 percent of the entire operating Budget. This Budget announcement sees an increase to 0.37 percent going to Māori—a whopping 0.07 percent increase. It appears as though this Government has an obsession with putting zeroes and a decimal point in front of what they give Māori. Funding for Māori programmes will not work if those programmes are not conceptualised, designed, managed, and governed by Māori. Funding for Māori programmes will not work—mā te Māori ki te Māori mō te Māori e ai ki te Māori; by Māori to Māori, for Māori, according to Māori is the only way. This is what we mean when we talk about mana motuhake. Let us not confuse the oranga of our people with money and dollar signs or silver and gold; mana motuhake means we make our decisions, and receive our resource equally, because that is our Treaty right.
