Overview
The CMS forms part of a cultural redress package in the Treaty Settlements of four Te Hiku o Te Ika iwi (Te Hiku iwi):
- Ngāti Kuri
- Te Aupōuri
- NgāiTakoto
- Te Rarawa.
Te Aupōuri, NgāiTakoto and Te Rarawa have contributed to the drafting. Ngāti Kuri have not participated directly, but have contributed in other ways.
The CMS applies to an area defined in Treaty Settlements as the Te Korowai area or Te Hiku region. This area extends from the Hokianga Harbour and mid-point Rangaunu Harbour northwards to Te Rerenga Wairua including Manawatāwhi (Three Kings Islands).
Once the CMS is brought into effect, it will replace the Northland CMS for Te Korowai area.
