Te Kawerau ā Maki Claims Settlement Bill

Bills are proposals to make a new law or to change an existing one. Only Parliament can pass a bill. Each bill goes through several stages, giving MPs and the public the chance to have their say.

This bill seeks to give effect to the deed of settlement entered into by the Crown and Te Kawerau a Maki on 22 February 2014 for the final settlement of historical Treaty of Waitangi claims of Te Kawerau a Maki.
