TE TIRITI

HE AROMATAWAI 

Where the parties stand on protecting Te Tiriti

Te Tiriti in the parties’ founding documents

This section examines how often the parties mention Te Tiriti in their constitutional documents, and what they have to say about it 

 

Our Tiriti Scorecard

Based upon public commitments to key policies that would enhance the political security and status of Te Tiriti o Waitangi. Ratings reflect parties’ documented public positions and legislative records as at September 2026, and will shift as manifestos are released through the campaign period.While we acknowledge that various parties may have policies that address Tiriti violations, we have chosen to focus on policies and actions which directly strengthen and protect Te Tiriti o Waitangi itself.  

PLEASE NOTE: This is a *live* scorecard, Vote for Te Tiriti welcomes information that enables us to update the scorecard and keep it as accurate as possible, based on public positions statements.

* We have deliberately used the term "reverse" to refer to both the halting of current legislation, and the reversal of actions already taken out which directly impact upon Tiriti clauses within legislation, such as the removal of S127 from Education and Training Act 2020, the Oranga Tamariki (Repeal of Section 7AA) Amendment Act, and the Pae Ora (Disestablishment of Māori Health Authority) Amendment Act 2024
