Rangitihi Marae
Bay of Plenty iwi Ngati Rangitihi could soon be in direct negotiations for the comprehensive settlement of its historic treaty claims.
Te Mana o Ngati Rangitihi Trust says the Office of Treaty Settlements has approved its plan to seek a mandate through a series of hui next month.
Chair Graham Pryor says the trust needs a clear mandate to speak for all people in the iwi.
There will be six hui held across the country starting in Rotorua on October 12 and ending in Matata eight days later.
