Ngāti Manuhiri exercise mana motuhake over taonga and rohe
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, supported by our whanaunga from Ngāti Rehua, Ngāti Wai, Te Uri o Hau, Nga Puhi, Ngāti Paoa, Hauraki, and Te Arawa, has placed a rāhui across Mangatawhiri (Omaha), Te Karau Tu Maro ō Toi (Kawau Island), Mahurangi, Hauturu-ō-Toi (Little Barrier Island) and Aotea (Great Barrier Island) prohibiting the taking of tipa (scallops) 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.
