Finally, I acknowledge the mana whenua of the land on which this House sits. Taranaki Whānui gathered yesterday at Pipitea Marae to lay down Te Kahu o Te Raukura, a cloak of peace in a form of cultural protection over their ancestral whenua, including all of Parliament, until the occupation is dispersed. They wanted to send a strong message to protestors—who have not honoured their role as manuhiri, as honoured guests—that now it is time to listen to mana whenua. Te Raukura contains the three feathers representing honour, peace and goodwill—the same symbol used at Parihaka.
