| The Maori Fisheries Act 2004 (NZ) replaces the Maori Fisheries Act 1989 (NZ), and details procedures relating to assets provided to Maori in 1989 as an interim settlement and those assets contained in the 1992 Treaty of Waitangi Fisheries Settlement (Sealord deal). The Act gives 'effect to the model that has been developed by the Treaty of Waitangi Fisheries Commission, in consultation with Maori, for allocating fisheries settlement assets to Iwi, for the ultimate benefit of all Maori and all New Zealanders' (Benson-Pope). |
