The He Puapua report outlines policy options to give effect to the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP), which New Zealand committed to under the previous National government.
Earlier this month Māori Development Minister Willie Jackson laid out the government s next steps to meeting the declaration, with no allowance for a new Indigenous Rights Commissioner.
Aotearoa s only Indigenous Rights Commissioner Karen Johansen wants the role reinstated as part of the government s implementation of UNDRIP.
