Text is incorporated into the Bound Volume.]ADRIAN RURAWHE (Labour—Te Tai Hauāuru): Ā tēnā koe Mr Deputy Speaker otirā ko te mea tuatahi: “Korōria hareruia ki a Ihowa o ngā mano tuauriuri whāioio kī tonu te rangi me te whenua i te nui o tōna korōria. Ā nō reira mā Te Māngai o ngā ariki hei tautoko mai āianei āke nei āe.” Ā kei te mihi atu anō i te āhuatanga ki ō tātou tini mate rātou katoa i hinga mai nā puta noa i Te Hiku otirā puta noa ngā moutere nei o Aotearoa. ‘aere ngā mate e oti e moe e moe ā kāti rā! Ki a tātou ngā kanohi ora tēnei ahau i tuku mihi atu ki ngā iwi nei kua tae mai i tēnei rā whakahirahira. Nō reira Ngāti Kurī NgāiTakoto Te Rarawa Te Aupōuri tēnei ahau e tuku mihi atu ki a koutou katoa. Tēnei te mihi mō ō koutou kaha kia tae mai i tēnei wā te pānuitanga tuatoru o ēnei pire nō reira tēnei te mihi atu. E tika ana hoki kia mihi atu ki te Minita me ngā āpiha o Office of Treaty Settlements tēnei hoki te mihi atu ki a koe e te Minita.[Thank you Mr Deputy Speaker but first of all: “Glory and halleluiah to Jehovah lord of hosts lord of ancient and infinite times heaven and earth is filled with his glory. And so the Mouthpiece of lords provides support now and forever yes!”. I therefore pay homage once again to the situation regarding the myriads of our dead all of those who have fallen throughout Te Hiku but at the same time throughout these islands of New Zealand; farewell the dead journey on rest and slumber there. And now here I am extending a welcome to the tribes who have arrived here on this important day. Therefore welcome Ngāti Kurī NgāiTakoto Te Rarawa and Te Aupōuri. I acknowledge you all. I commend you on your efforts to get here at this moment for the third reading of these bills so congratulations. It is apt as well to acknowledge you the Minister and the officials of the Office of Treaty Settlements. Congratulations Minister.]It is a great pleasure for me to rise to have a short call on these bills the third readings of which are today. We have heard many kōrero about the tenacity about the strength about everything that it takes to go through this process and I endorse all of those words. It is indeed one of the special times that I have had since I became an MP last year—to stand in this House and speak to settlement bills. They are not an end but they are a beginning.At the first reading I spoke of the story of Tūmatahina and his endeavours to ensure that his people were able to escape from Murimotu. I repeat those words today in this context. The taura that was woven for the rangatira nei so that they and his people could escape from Murimotu was the means by which they escaped.This settlement the settlements that each of you as iwi will have is a means for you to move forward in this ever-changing world and I want to acknowledge all of the rangatahi who are here today. These settlements are really about the future of your rangatahi and their children and their mokopuna. It is incumbent upon the iwi to grow that asset to move forward for a better future for them.So I want to acknowledge the fortitude and the tenacity of the negotiators and of all of the iwi in getting to this point and ensuring that there is a better future for your tamariki and your mokopuna. It is not an easy process as we have heard and I want in this very short call to acknowledge all of those who have passed who have also given so much to this process in coming to this day.Kua tangi te pere kua poto noa iho taku kōrero hoi anō ka huri atu anō ki a rātou i te wā’i ngāro. Nō reira ko te tūmanako kia ūhia mai e Ihowa o Ngā Mano ōna manaakitanga i runga ki ō koutou whānau me ō koutou hapū katoa i roto i ēnei ā’uatanga. Nō reira piki te ora piki te kaha te māramatanga ki a tātou katoa mā te Māngai hei tautoko mai āianei āe![The bell has sounded and my contribution is shortened and so I turn once again to those in the unseen realm. The hope therefore is that Jehovah Lord of Hosts has thrown his kindness upon your families and upon all your subtribes in these circumstances. So to you and to all of us may life endurance and enlightenment prevail with the support of the Mouthpiece forever; yes!]
