Hui Discussion
The agenda
is still being finalised and we guarantee healthy discussion on
what the Kahawai Legal Challenge judgment means and the subsequent
stay application that has been granted by the High Court. The focus
will be on the long-term effects of these decisions on fisheries
management processes in Aotearoa.
We are also planning to discuss initiatives the Hokianga Accord
can take to rebuild our fisheries and protect our marine environment
through the meaningful application of kaitiakitanga (guardianship).
Local initiatives will also be discussed as well as MFish management
of tuna (eels), tarakihi, scallops and other fisheries.
The finalised agenda will be loaded online so you can access it
before the hui. Keep an eye on the following page for updated details
