Abstract

The purpose of this Act is to contribute to the legal expression, protection, and recognition of the continued exercise of mana by ngā hapū o Ngāti Porou in relation to ngā rohe moana o ngā hapū o Ngāti Porou (part of the Gisborne District Council area). Part 1 specifies relation of the Act with Marine and Coastal Area (Takutai Moana) Act 2011. Furthermore, it clarifies the meaning of ngā hapū o Ngāti Porou intended as the hapū of Ngāti Porou named in any Part of Schedule 2 including any group that forms part of or evolves from that. It also provides a map (Schedule 3) and describes the meaning of ngā rohe moana and ngā rohe moana o ngā hapū o Ngāti Porou intended as the area that is the combination of each area described in a Part of Schedule 2 including the customary marine title areas within these areas. This definition prevails if it conflicts with the map in Schedule 3.
