Marine and Coastal Area (Takutai Moana) Bill

Marine and Coastal Area (Takutai Moana) Bill

Grey Power opposed the repeal of the 2004 Foreshore and Seabed Amendment Act and has strong concerns with respect to Clause 93 Part 4 of the new Bill which provides for customary rights and customary marine title to be negotiated by agreement with the Crown (Minister) and be formalised by Order-In-Council. Grey Power will oppose the inclusion of this clause but will support Clause 96 Part 4 which empowers the High Court to rule on these matters.
