Te Arataura reaffirms Tukoroirangi Morgan as Chair
8 August 2011
Te Arataura – The
executive board of Waikato-Tainui Te Kauhanganui
Inc
– has today reaffirmed Tukoroirangi Morgan as its
Chair.
Acting Chair Patience Te Ao said the rules of Te
Kauhanganui are clear
that a resolution to oust the Chair
needed to be supported by 50 percent
of marae.
“That
threshold was not met when the vote was taken on
Saturday,” Mrs
Te Ao said.
“Te Arataura took
independent legal advice which confirmed
its
interpretation of the rules, and a resolution passed
to reaffirm Mr Morgan
as Chair,” she said.
Mrs Te Ao
said the board hopes this brings the matter to a
close.
“However, we will work hard with Te Kauhanganui
to resolve any
outstanding
matters.”
