Google how big the Maori population actually is, and then ponder how much of a threat to the average middle aged white guy they are. Heavens, a bit of shared governance over the important bits of this nation would be good for all of us. Especially considering how much that average white guy has benefited from the theft from and dominance of that tangata whenua population over the decades.

Talk about dog in the manger...

Well said Hunni.  I totally ageee.

If we move towards that more, then the future may mean a fairer way for all of us - doesn't seem like a bad thing.

Do you believe that 16% of the population should have 50% of the say?  Or in the case of health veto over the other 84%?  

Let's take a look at examples of co-governance already in place namely the running of the Te Urawera NP.  How did that work out?  Even with DOC willing to pay for upkeep it was a failure by any measure.

could you point out to me where abouts in that document it says anything about maori authorities having a power of veto of the rest of new zealand.  It just sounds a bit too far fetched...

Check out the details re the health changes.

reading the health section I can see several references to

Existence  of  a  national,  Māori-controlled agency, organisation or collective with oversight  and  control  of  Māori  health-related spending and policy

which all seems rather reasonable.  

Nothing about having a power of veto or some such...  I did a page search for the "veto" reference, surprisingly nothing showed up...  So unless you can come with a specific reference, i'm calling it a bogus claim that someone  made up and all the CT sheep copy/paste and feebly advocate.

You seem well informed of the contents of the document. In that case maybe you could provide a quote of the relevant info or at least a link to guide those who are interested to the info you're referring to.

I doubt he has even looked at it...

Yup. And I am including myself in that generalisation. I am very much middle class white, and old. A boomer in fact. Thing is I have a Maori daughter, and she became an activist. And I got involuntarily educated. So I have a foot in both camps.

It can be an 'interesting' position to be in. But it beats the hell out of being the ignorant woman I was before.

 please provide a link or reference to substantiate the claim, as I mentioned I can't find any reference to it?

I didn't say in that document.   I said in the health system changes.  

It MIGHT get watered down before  it is made law.  But Maori would have veto over the health system in its current form..

i beg your pardon?

like everything you say, incredibly vague and evasive and completely unhelpful...


anyway, found the document you weren't referring to 

52 Similarly, turning to national service planning, in relation to hauora Māori it will also be critical that there is clear and meaningful Māori leadership and involvement. My expectation is that the Māori Health Authority should have a co-lead role in relation to national planning and in designing the key operating mechanisms that the system will use. This would require the Māori Health Authority to jointly agree national plans and operational frameworks(e.g. the commissioning framework), with clear approval rights including an ability to exercise a veto in sign-off.  Having such an approval mandate would ensure the Māori Health Authority is engaged early and constructively, and that critical operations are aligned with a clearhauora Māori vision, embed Māori priorities and mātauranga Māori systems, and enable mechanisms that give life to local Māori leadership in the health system
https://dpmc.govt.nz/publications/cabine...als-reform

Now as I read this it refers to 

• designing the key operating mechanisms
  
• jointly agree national plans and operational frameworks
  

So the power of VETO fear mongering would seem to be in the design and makeup of the future health system, presumably to ensure that it does allow for Maori Health outcomes... It is in the design and build phase only...


and I fail to see how that can be a bad thing?  It's not like the Maori health authority will have day to day power of veto over the health of all New Zealanders - which is what all the fear mongering seems to be suggesting...

Am I wrong?

and as an aside, as I see it this is a classic example of CT nutter ideas, by not reading shit properly, taking shit out of context, and spewing out, the out of context shit, as 'facts'

The power of Veto is not related to He PuaPua as claimed in the OP but from a completely separate source...
The power of Veto is not 'over the entire health system' as claimed in the OP but only over the Design/Build phase...

Out of context
Overstated the reach

Read the document you just referenced.  Read is carefully and slowly.  Then read it again and then you may understand.

I know one thing with the changes they are proposing. If I get sick or need an opperation and Moari get priority I will be ticking that box to say I am moari.

Indeed.   There's an interesting piece in Stuff today about co-governance, with particular reference to the Waikato River Authority, which has been a success.

yeah, nothing to see there unless you're a racist bigot.  Nothing ever seems to have any kernel of truth with you does it? always, twisted, embellished logic...

you should probably go and read the document.  Read it carefully and slowly.  Then read it again and then you may understand, that it is not anti new zealander, just pro equity for all citizens.  If you can't get that then there is no helping you...

Well, you could. But unless you can learn to spell it properly first, I don't really think they're going to believe you....
