The Manawatū ki Porirua Waitangi Tribunal hearings move to Feilding next week. It will be the sixth week of the Manawatū ki Porirua Waitangi inquiry, which is part of the overall Ngāti Raukawa Treaty claim on the historical purchase of thousands of hectares of land from Manawatū to Kāpiti. Ngāti Raukawa claims the historical sale of the Rangitīkei-Manawatū block was not done legitimately. The last session was in Te Awahou (Foxton) in April and now the hearings move to the Feilding Civic Centre on Monday and will run to Friday. The event is open to the public.
