Mahuta NanaiaHon NANAIA MAHUTA (Labour—Hauraki-Waikato): Kia ora. Tēnā koe Mr Chair. At the risk of cutting across my colleague Rino Tirikatene who was right in the middle of his stride making some very salient points on this particular bill—I apologise for cutting you off at the fence. I want to follow on from the very good points that were made by my colleague but firstly I want to acknowledge Alastair Scott. I am sure the trustees of the Papawai and Kaikokirikiri Trusts Board will be very happy with what we have been able to support on their behalf. Just think since 1943 this trust has been funding by way of scholarships young people from their area to pursue education. A lot has to be said about the investment in education. When these submitters all women came to the Māori Affairs Committee all were very humble about their contribution to the aspirations of their iwi and all were absolutely singularly focused on ensuring that they were better prepared as trustees to make those types of decisions that will equip their children with a better education and then be able to contribute back to the iwi.I listened carefully to the contribution around the dual translation of the bill. Just to anchor some of the contributions here today which were well responded to by our chair Nuk Korako and the member Pita Paraone this request came from within the committee; it was not a request made by the submitters to the bill. The committee had thought: Well this is a small enough bill to be able to test as a Māori Affairs Committee. Could we go through the process from beginning to end in terms of a dual translation of a bill that was very small?". Well that was our thought.The responses that we got from advisers have already been expressed but I would like to make the point that Rino Tirikatene had really started to draw on which is that if Parliament really wants to pursue the process of dual translation then when the Government is setting the legislative agenda it will need to take account of that when it funds Parliamentary Counsel Office for this purpose because by its own admission it does not have the capacity to be able to respond to a request of that nature although the Māori Affairs Committee sees itself as pushing on that aspiration because we recognise Māori as a national language for our country. So that is the context in which we addressed this issue with this particular bill. We did not achieve the outcome. To some extent we identified that the 1943 Act and then the 1992 rewrite of this particular Act might make that whole process a bit more clunky than we had anticipated and so we left it in abeyance.Coming back to the preamble and the expression of how the bill could be better modernised I think it is quite evident in the first instance that the recognition of the Bishop of Te Upoko o Te Ika gives recognition to the modernising of the Anglican Church and the dioceses and the Treaty of Waitangi model that it has but also to the closer relationship that it has with Māori. That indeed will flow through the bill. Then the other aspects of that are the nomination process for board members. It is well explained in the bill that under the old process you had the diocese involved you had the Māori Land Court involved and then you had the Minister—not of Māori development but of education—involved. The opportunity that the revamp now provides is more localised input from the tangata whenua of Wairarapa who can be involved in that and I think that is in line and in keeping with the evolution of aspiration of the Papawai and Kaikokirikiri Trusts Board.I know I have not got much longer and I did not intend to take a very long call but I would like the member in the chair the sponsoring member to explain why Clareville is not a part of the title and also why the approach was to enable Clareville lands to be sold but not Papawai and Kaikōkirikiri lands. By way of explanation to the Committee I think that would be a very useful exercise and it will be something that people will draw on because in the title of the bill it does not refer to Clareville which is an estate administered under this particular trust board. Kia ora tātou."
