Tauranga Moana Iwi Collective Redress and Ngā Hapū o Ngāti Ranginui Claims Settlement Bill

I seek leave to move a motion without notice regarding the discharge of the Tauranga Moana Iwi Collective Redress and Ngā Hapū o Ngāti Ranginui Claims Settlement Bill, its referral to the Māori Affairs Committee, and the instruction to the committee.

Is there any objection to that course of action? There appears to be none.

Hon PAUL GOLDSMITH: I move, That the order of the day for the second reading of the Tauranga Moana Iwi Collective Redress and Ngā Hapū o Ngāti Ranginui Claims Settlement Bill be discharged, and the bill be referred to the Māori Affairs Committee for consideration of Amendment Papers Nos. 18 and 19 in my name, and that the committee report back to the House by 8 April 2024, and that the committee have authority to meet at any time while the House is sitting (except during oral questions), during any evening on a day on which there has been a sitting of the House, on a Friday in a week in which there has been a sitting of the House, and outside the Wellington area, despite Standing Orders 193, 195, and 196.

The question is that the motion be agreed to.

Motion agreed to.
