Status: Current
Tuia ki te rangi, Tuia ki te papa
Tuia ki te moana, Tuia tātou
E rongo te pō, E rongo te ao
Haumi e, Hui e, Tāiki e!
The Ngāti Manuhiri Settlement Trust has placed a rāhui from Te Taumutu Point (Omaha sand spit) to the entrance of the Whangateau harbour to Ti Point, prohibiting the taking of cockle or pipi while this rāhui is in force.
What does this mean?
A rāhui (a physical and spiritual mechanism) sets a temporary prohibition around the rāhui area and restricts access for that period. The purpose of the rāhui is to enable the environment to recuperate and regenerate without the presence and impact of humans.
