N1  - This bill did not pass on 2nd reading, 10 April 2025
N2  - The New Zealand Family Violence Clearinghouse opposes the Principles of the Treaty of Waitangi Bill.

Our opposition to the Bill is based on our commitment to an honourable treaty relationship. The relationship agreed to in the Treaty of Waitangi provides a foundation for safe relationships, toiora whānau and ending violence.
Our opposition to the Bill is supported by the findings of several reports, including Treasury’s Regulatory Impact Statement (RIS): Providing certainty on the Treaty principles [1], the Ministry of Justice Departmental Disclosure Statement: Principles of the Treaty of Waitangi Bill [2], and the
Waitangi Tribunal’s Wai 3300 interim reports: Ngā Mātāpono | The Principles: The interim report of the Tomokia Ngā Tatau o Matangireia – the Constitutional Kaupapa Inquiry Panel on the
Crown’s Treaty Principles Bill and Treaty Clause Review Policies.[3]

We support the findings and recommendations of the Wai 3300 Ngā Mātāpono reports and the 8 November 2024 submission of the Human Rights Commission. (From the document). Record #9106
