10. PSAG – will there be something in writing to keep tino rangatiratanga?
Trust Board Reply:
This was a debatable question, as some believe that tino rangatiratanga (self-rule) is possible, whilst others believed that tino rangatiratanga implies taking care of oneself (self-determination). No Treaty settlement to date has resulted in self-rule, but some have enabled their Iwi to gain a greater degree of self-determination.

3. What is the percentage of votes required? For example if there are 1000 people on register, how many need to vote?
Trust Board Reply:
The Iwi should decide these matters, by proposing ideas at the Consultation Hui, which can be ratified in a vote taken by all registrants prior to the Deed of Settlement. Issues to be considered include:
Whether the ‘majority’ includes all those who are registered, or only those who vote
Simple Majority: 51%
Significant Majority 75%
