Rent review right admitted
Members of the NgaiTahu Maori Trust Board yesterday welcomed what they described as an “admission” by the Mayor of Greymouth, Dr Barry Dallas, that the Mawhera Incorporation had a right to review
its rentals in Greymouth. Dr Dallas said in evidence to the tribunal that a seven-year term of lease would be preferrable to the proposed three or five years. He said that he was
* , afraid the incorporation i had adopted pakeha ■ , values. He accused it of t■, treating th® resident f i Maori people as “se'iond- • *' class” Maoris. 1 Mr Tipene O'Segan, the trust board ehairs man, was delighted with 5
Dr Dallas’s “admission that we have a rental problem.” The public hearing before the tribunal will continue tomorrow at the Ashley Motor Inn in Greymouth at 9.30 a.m.
