Ng¯ati Tuwharetoa (Bay of Plenty) Claims Settlement Bill

Preamble
Ngāti Tuwharetoa (Bay of Plenty)
Claims Settlement
Struck out (unanimous)
Hanuere o te tau 1863. Ka ahei te Kāwana te whakatau i tetahi
Rohe i raro i te Ture, i runga i te mea he whenua kei taua rohe
no etahi tangata e kiia nei he tangata hara ratou.
(15) I whakatau te Karauna, he iwi hara ngā iwi o te Waiariki i te
mea i ‘‘ātete’’ ratou ki ngā hoia i haere ki te rohe ki te mauhere
i te hunga na ratou a Fulloon ma i kohuru.
Te tikanga Pāremata
(16) I whakaturia Te Kōti Pāremata i raro i ngā tikanga o Te Ture
Whakatau Manene ki Niu Tireni 1863, ki te whakarongo ki
ngā kereme mo te whakahoki i ngā whenua raupatu. I mua o
te wā noho o te Kōti Pāremata, i te marama o Pepuere o te tau
1866, tohungia ai ko Apiha Karauna John A Wilson hei
komihana motuhake, ki te whakarongo ki ngā wawāhitanga o
ngā whenua raupatu i Te Waiariki.
(17) I whakaritea e Wilson kia wehea ki etahi poraka ngā whenua e
87 000 eka i raupatutia, mai i te raina raupatu ki te uru, ahu atu
ki te Awa o Tarawera. He rahi tonu te wāhanga o te whenua
nei, e keremehia ana e Ngati Tuwharetoa me etahi atu iwi, i
tukuna ke ki etahi iwi mai i Te Arawa me etahi atu hei utu mo
ngā mahi hoia. I riro atu ano ngā whenua he pānga o Ngati
Tuwharetoa i te taha rāwhiti o te awa o Tarawera.
(18) I rongo Te Kōti Pāremata etahi korero mai etahi tangata o
Ngati Tuwharetoa e pa ana ki ngā whenua kei roto i te
raupatu, kei te taha hau-a-uru o te awa o Tarawera. Ko etahi o
ngā kereme a Ngati Tuwharetoa e whakaae ana te Koti, mo
ngā poraka whenua o Tawhiti-nui (e 6 320 eka) raua ko
Rotoiti-paku (e 13 675 eka).
(19) No te marama o Tihema o te tau 1867 whakawhiwhia ai e Te
Kōti Pāremata te poraka o Rotoiti-paku ki etahi tangata tekau
a, ko te poraka o Tawhiti-nui i whakawhiwhia ki etahi tangata
tekau-ma-tōru. I whakawhiwhia enei tangata i te mea ko ratou
te hunga whai pānga ki aua whenua, a, kaore ratou i kuhu ki
ngā mahi ‘‘hara’’.
(20) Ko te titiro a Ngati Tuwharetoa ki enei whakawhiwhinga, mo
te iwi ke, a, ko ngā tangata i tohungia, i te tu ke hei kai-tiaki
mo te hapū. Haunga, no te pānuitanga o ngā whakawhiwhinga
a Te Kōti Pāremata i roto i Te Kāhiti o Niu Tireni i te tau
