The historical account gives us some purpose to why we're here and why we're actually going through this settlement process, as has been commented by my whanaunga, as much as one can do, in modern terms, for redress of the past, acknowledging that it can never fully meet those claims and that mamae that has been done, but seeking, in modern terms, some redress as far as possible. The historical account talks about the late 1840s with the Ahuriri Hapū around Te Whanganui-ā-Orotu, and around the time they were considering how they might incorporate and promote and establish a relationship with Pākehā settlements. The Crown, in 1850, opened negotiations with Ahuriri Māori to purchase large blocks of land, and the Crown led them to believe that they'd derive considerable benefit from this relationship when they purchased the Ahuriri block for £1,500. It's long been contested that Te Whanganui-ā-Orotu, a place of high spiritual and cultural significance, was not included in the Ahuriri purchase. This has been a point of contention. There have been other points of difficulty; most Treaty settlements actually have some divergence of views that eventually come to the middle and eventually get us to a third reading, like we are here today. There were discussions around the mandate and some changes that needed to be made, and officials from the Office of Treaty Settlements were eventually able to reach an accommodation that did establish that the mandate was valid.
