Te Kāhui Tika Tangata Human Rights Commission"The government said it wants clarity, but many Māori, legal experts, the Waitangi Tribunal, the Human Rights Commission, and international bodies say the review risks doing the opposite: weakening protections, reducing accountability, and increasing conflict. "Certainty and clarity are better achieved by following agreed human rights standards which support honouring treaties and respecting Indigenous peoples' human rights." "Te Tiriti is not a side issue or a drafting inconvenience; it is part of the constitutional and human rights foundation of Aotearoa," Takitimu said.
