Treaty Principals Bill

[C_T_Russell]

That's the whole point of this bill.
The treaty has been rewritten over the years and now we face issues where you receive special benefits if you are "maori"
So if your, great,great,great,great grandfather was maori or part maori, you get handouts.
Welfare should be based on need, not race.

If you identify as maori, you can get free school uniforms and dental care, etc while a pakeha family can't who is in more genuine need for example, how is any of that fair?

you're examples are completely inaccurate 

school uniforms - nothing about race mentioned here, seems to be more about genuine need

as for dental care it has always been free for all kids up to 18 years of late, above that, well I see just as many if not more Maori with bad teeth than I do Pakeha, so that claim doesn't stack up either.

Well ive got a friend who is maori and thats what they told me, they said they have a maori dental clinic they go to and get free treatment as adults. I will check with them about how the uniforms work, but thats what they told me, and ive heard it from others.
