Explanation
Council has, with the agreement of the iwi, implemented the above provisions. In consultation with the Iwi these provisions are intended to facilitate the relationship of Maori with their ancestral lands. Council is not attempting to specifically provide the opportunity for villages for other communal groups. Council is also not providing the opportunity for retailing and rural industries on ancestral lands. Council considers it necessary to preserve rural land for rural production and to ensure such activities are treated similarly throughout the District regardless of land ownership.
