The Waitangi Tribunal in their Wai 2575 Report recommended the establishment of Te Aka Whai Ora (the Māori Health Authority) to remedy some of the contemporary breaches of Te Tiriti o Waitangi (Te Tiriti). Te Aka Whai Ora was the culmination of decades of Māori advocacy for the establishment of independent Māori health leadership, policymaking and commissioning. Under urgency, the new National-led coalition Government passed the Pae Ora (Disestablishment of Māori Health Authority) Amendment Act 2024 in February. In this paper we use Critical Tiriti Analysis (CTA), a five-stage process, to review the extent to which the Act is compliant with the five elements of Te Tiriti (the authoritative Māori text), the preamble, the three written articles and the oral article. We found that the Act had very limited Tiriti compliance and the potential to do great harm. We offered practical suggestions how this could have been avoided.
怀唐伊法庭在 Wai 2575 号报告中建议设立 Te Aka Whai Ora(毛利健康管理局),以纠正《怀唐伊条约》(Te Tiriti o Waitangi)中的一些当代违反行为。Te Aka Whai Ora 是毛利人几十年来倡导建立独立的毛利人健康领导力、决策和委托的成果。在紧急情况下,新的国家领导的联合政府于 2024 年 2 月通过了《Pae Ora(废除毛利健康管理局)修正案法案》。在本文中,我们使用关键条约分析(CTA),一个五阶段的过程,来审查该法案在多大程度上符合《怀唐伊条约》(权威的毛利文本)的五个要素、序言、三个书面条款和口头条款。我们发现该法案几乎没有遵守条约,而且有可能造成巨大的伤害。我们提供了如何避免这种情况的实际建议。
