Whakarāpopototanga / Executive summary
The purpose of the report is to inform and update Te Taitokerau Māori and Council Working Party (TTMAC) of the draft ‘Tāiki e’ (NRC Te Tiriti Strategy and Implementation Plan) (attached) and how it focuses specifically on actions to achieve the desired goals for Capacity, Capability and Māori Representation from the TTMAC Strategic Intent. There is a commitment for further work to be undertaken for the remaining whainga/goals outlined in the intent. These being water/marine, climate crises and economic development; further consideration is required for how these will be integrated within existing work programmes for these priority areas. Furthermore, this is signaled in ‘Tāiki e’ action point 2.
The ingoa or name ‘Tāiki e’ denotes the intent to a collective commitment that “we come together to get the mahi done” as described by TTMAC Co-Chair Pita Tipene. The Tāiki e (NRC Te Tiriti Strategy and Implementation Plan) subsequently includes actions that commits NRC in a partnership with TTMAC (and other key stakeholders) to a series of tasks that have resourcing implications (financial and staffing) with an objective to have the Tāiki e (NRC Te Tiriti Strategy and Implementation Plan) adopted by council by end of July 2022. Included below is a diagram that aims to explain how all the parts work together.
The subgroup consisting of TTMAC representatives Pita Tipene (TTMAC Co-Chair), Lynette Wharerau, Mira Norris, Mike Kake, Nora Rameka and councillors Penny Smart (Chair), Jack Craw, Marty Robinson (TTMAC Co-Chair), Amy MacDonald have participated in a series of workshops supported by Chief Executive Officer Malcolm Nicolson and key staff Group Managers Jonathan Gibbard and Auriole Ruka. The drafting process has been iterative and directly informed by the subgroup members in workshops facilitated by consultants Barker & Associates consultants, Makarena Dalton and David Badham.
Both Makarena and David were engaged in the development of the TTMAC Strategic Intent and have had experience in working with TTMAC and council in Te Tiriti based matters, consequently they were engaged for this next significant step in council’s commitment to Te Tiriti o Waitangi and the Tāiki e NRC Te Tiriti Strategy and Implementation. They will be attending TTMAC for feedback and endorsement. David and Makarena will present for TTMAC the process and methodology undertaken with the subggroup and the implementation plan to ensure that TTMAC are clear of what this will entail both for TTMAC and council.
1. That the report “Tāiki E NRC Te Tiriti Strategy and Implementation Plan” by Auriole Ruka, GM Pou Manawhakahaere, 11 July 2022 be received.
2. That the Tāiki Ē NRC Te Tiriti Strategy and Implementation Plan be endorsed by Te Taitokerau Māori and Council Working Party (TTMAC) for recommendation to council for adoption at the July 26, 2022 council meeting (subject to any changes or amendments recommended by TTMAC for the subgroup to consider).
Background/Tuhinga
Throughout the workshops the subgroup has developed a diagram that will be described further in the presentation by David and Makarena with an aim to illustrate the following:
1. The relationships and connections between NRC, TTMAC, and iwi, hapū and whanau (green boxes).
2. Identify key existing strategic documents that have influenced and guided the development of the broader Tāiki e NRC Te Tiriti o Waitangi Strategy and Implementation Plan (orange boxes).
3. Position the new Tāiki e NRC Te Tiriti o Waitangi Strategy and Implementation Plan (yellow box) and the cycle of its influence over NRC LTP/AP budgeting and implementation and the need for ongoing review based on council’s implementation and an evolving Te Tiriti partnership (light blue boxes).
4. Recognise and acknowledge that the annual Te Tiriti Health Check will be reviewing and making recommendations for constant improvement for NRC and how it supports and upholds its Te Tiriti partnership (dark blue box).
5. Acknowledgement that Te Kahu o Taonui has not had an opportunity to be engaged and contribute to the development of the Tāiki e NRC Te Tiriti o Waitangi Strategy and Implementation Plan yet but that it is NRC’s intention to engage with TKOT in the future to seek their input and guidance to broaden the NRC strategy following elections (grey box and dashed arrow).
