This Government’s Coalition agreement is being prioritised over the 184 year Treaty agreement that embraces our country’s past, present and future.
NWŌ recognises the text in te reo as the Treaty.
No English language version was signed at Waitangi on 6 February 1840.
Any NWŌ references to the Treaty/Te Tiriti are to that text in te reo.
There are no substitutes.
Te Tiriti was always a generous invitation from Tangata Whenua for us all to live together in peace and mutual benefit
– and we can still live into that promise!
