JULY 2014
TE URI TANIWHA HAP! KAIKORERO
MONTHLY UPDATE
On Sunday 6 July a brave and
committed bunch of people came out
at 5.00pm to Parawhenua Marae to
listen to my presentation about the
Tuhoronuku process and hear some ofmy thoughts about the process and
where things might be headed for us in
and from Te Ahuahu.
After some brief mihimihi and
introductions I began the evening with a
very brief video presentation ,courtesy
of ‘youtube’, about the Waitangi claims
process including both hearings process
and the direct negotiations process. I
have posted this entire presentation on
the Parawhenua Marae facebook page
fyi. I then took some time to explain
the Tuhoronuku process to date and
upcoming steps including a look at who
the hap! kaikorero are for theWaimate-Taiamai-Kaikohe area. I made
it known that I was not ambitious
about being one of the three from our
area that go to the main table, but if I
was considered worthwhile and a
nomination for me was forthcoming
from my fellow hap! kaikorero then I
would accept and represent our people
well. Hone Mihaka expressed his
disinterest in being at the table but did
express his support for Moana Tuwhare
of Te Popoto. Terri Lomax is keen to
have a go at sitting at the table. The
hap! kaikorero nominations and
elections will take place on the 25 July.This hui and process is for hap!
kaikorero only. A full list of the hap!
kaikorero is on my video presentation.
Once the elections for hapu kaikorero
are complete, the next major step will
be to select negotiators. Between then
and now I would like to hear what our
people needs, want and expect from
the settlement process.

Video clip profiles of Tuhoe, Ngati Porou and the Te Arawa Lakes Trust were shared in an effort to inspire those that were
there to think about and write down what their wishes are for the future of people of and from Te Ahuahu. Paper and pens
were handed out and everyone had a good go and writing down all the things they think are important for our future. The

This is a great effort for only a hand full of people, over coming months I encourage everyone to write down what they
want for the future. Never mind the cost or how small or big your dreams are -they are important and I want to hear
them. After the hui everyone had a nice hot cup of tea and korero before heading off home.
I have uploaded my presentation to the Parawhenua Marae facebook page, on this you will see my commitments as hap!
kaikorero for Te Uri Taniwha - one of my commitments is to provide a monthly newsletter like this one just to keep
everyone up to date with what is being discussed and give you all an opportunity to have your say through me (or Hone or
Terri).
So until mid-August, take care of each other, stay warm, dry and safe on the roads. Arohanui me nga manaakitanga, Hinerangi
