This week the New Zealand Maori Council took the claim regarding Maori rights to fresh water to the High Court to stop the government selling off 49 percent of Mighty River Power.

The court action is delaying the sale so there can be a judicial review of the entire process. Ngawai speaks with high profile Maori lawyer Willie Te Aho who has represented iwi claims for Rongowhakaata, Ngati Koroki Kahukura, and is a former Chief Executive of Gisborne – based tribal organisation Te Runanga o Turanganui a Kiwa. Willie also lectured at Waikato University on Maori economic, social and cultural development. Ngawai talks with Willie about what’s in store for the Maori Council as they go through the court system, and what possible recourse the council has, if any, if their case fails, especially now there is no Privy Council to turn too.

Sunday – 28th October 2012 – Noon – 12:30 – Repeated at 5pm

In this part of its report, entitled From Self-governing Native Reserve to National Park, the Tribunal looks at the origins of Te Urewera National Park, created in 1954 and greatly extended in 1957. An uncomfortable history, the Tribunal says, lies behind the creation of the park.

The origins of the park lie in the Crowns broken promises to the peoples of Te Urewera.

Ngawai talks with one of Tuhoes chief negotiators Tamati Kruger about the release of this latest report, and the significance of the inclusion of Te Urewera as part of the tribes claim.
Still on this kaupapa Ngawai also speaks with Ngati Ruapani leader James Waiwai. James is the Chair of the Ruapani Ki Waikaremoana Trust. Ngati Ruapani are descendants of the Tuhoe Confederation of tribes but they have been dealing with their own Waitangi claims separately.
