Key Risks
10Settlement could tempt organisation into 'business as usual' rather than cultural foundations
Division if whānau engagement and transparent communication fail
Risk of treating redress as compensation rather than strategic tool for rebuilding iwi strength
Grant funding dependency affected by fluctuating political and economic conditions
Resource Management Act reforms may undermine Treaty settlement rights and principles
Uncertainty around central government commitment to upholding Te Tiriti o Waitangi in legislation
Changes to local government and removal of regional councils could impact co-management arrangements
Waiheke Station Farm left in perilous financial position requiring significant recovery investment
