I speak out loud this afternoon on their behalf to acknowledge their grievance. Their main grievance is here with our Crown. The failure to intervene to end the enslavement of Moriori—failure to protect Moriori from becoming virtually landless, following an 1870 Native Land Court decision to award less than 3 percent of the land on Rēkohu to the Moriori. Failure to protect their language—ta rē Moriori—the grievance and the role in the collection and trade of kōimi karāpuna, the Moriori ancestral bones or remains, that were completely ignored. The role in promoting myth that stigmatised Moriori as racially inferior people that became extinct. I, like others, and as we acknowledge here in the House, grew up to understand that the Moriori people did not exist, and that's a sad, sad outcome for the culture and identity of particularly the young people, the tamariki, the rangatahi, that grow up wanting to know their identity.
