The Trust Board held informal hui last Wednesday the 13th of November 2013 with Mr Ben Dalton, Deputy Director General Māori Primary Sector Partnerships, over the Ministers ultimatum letter.

Although the hui minutes have been available on this website over the past few days they have now been removed at the request of Mr Ben Dalton. Mr Dalton has explained that the meeting was advertised by the NKKW Trust Board as an informal meeting, and as such he was surprised that there were minutes. He was even more surprised that the minutes have been promulgated before being signed off by the Chairman, or allowing him the opportunity to check the accuracy of comments attributed to him. He has stated that the minutes do not accurately reflect what was said in the meeting.
