The Alliance says Te Tiriti o Waitangi is a foundational document for everyone in New Zealand. They say land claims and other Treaty breaches must be fixed, that Māori customary rights should be protected, and that Māori culture and the Māori language should be supported and promoted as the first culture and language of the country.
“Te Tiriti o Waitangi is a core constitutional document in this land, and the basis for a shared future between tangata whenua and all other people in Aotearoa New Zealand.”
“Land claims and other breaches of Te Tiriti o Waitangi must be redressed, Māori customary rights safeguarded, and Māoritanga and Te Reo Māori promoted as the first culture and language of Aotearoa New Zealand.”
