The Ahuriri Hapū Claims Settlement Bill was introduced in Parliament in 2019. It passed its first reading and went through the Māori Affairs Select Committee last year. GOOGLE This property on Waghorne St, Napier, is the only asset at present of the Mana Ahuriri Trust. Beneficiaries will not receive settlement until the Bill is passed. Several property developments in Napier have been stalled as a result of the delays. This includes the stalled construction of a $20m store housing Briscoes and Rebel Sports, which was granted resource consent three years ago Concerns around the appointment of trustees were raised by the Waitangi Tribunal, which in 2019 recommended that an election for the nine positions on Mana Ahuriri Trust be held before settlement legislation was passed.
