| 682067 | 2008-06-25 03:11:00 | Exactly. Facts. Seems you dont need them to get a claim these days... You obviously haven't read any of the Waitangi Tribunal reports then, and clearly don't understand all of the research that goes into claims from both the Crown and the claimant. |

| 682068 | 2008-06-25 03:15:00 | Research of what?? It's pointless money grabbing. Good on them for trying but enough is enough. |

Take a risk with your closed mind, and read a Waitangi Tribunal report, rob. It is a waste of time debating any of this with you and others who haven't taken the trouble to read any of the reports, and to learn about what drives these claims. It is anything but pointless. |

| 682070 | 2008-06-25 05:24:00 | It IS pointless when the huge settlements don't go to benefit the people the settlement is supposedly being claimed for. And no-one ever moved forward by looking backwards. |

The facts are that Maori on a percentage basis per head of population are still well up on the bad statistics like crime, education and health for example. |

What about the Tuhoe tribe for example whom apparently did not sign the Treaty of Waitangi. www.nzhistory.net.nz And, as usual, there are various interpretations of text. This is why we have lawyers to explain what was really meant at the time. |
