The Māori Development Minister says iwi will welcome clarity about the responsibilities of major Māori agencies.
The Government is shifting some functions of Te Arawhiti —the Office for Māori-Crown Relations— to the Ministry for Māori Development.
Te Arawhiti will now focus solely on negotiating Treaty of Waitangi settlements and Takutai Moana applications and the Ministry for Māori Development will focus on economic and social development, and other such matters.
Minister Tama Potaka told Mike Hosking there’s been a lot of concern around the context of how Treaty related and Māori issues have been engaged with, but both he and Iwi and Māori leaders throughout the country want their confusion sorted.
He said that they don’t want ambiguity in this space, and neither does he.
