Treaty settlement
In July 2018, The Crown signed the "Pare Hauraki Collective Redress Deed" with 5 of the 12 iwi of Hauraki. The deed included the return of 1,000 hectares around the Moehau Range and 1,000 hectares around Mount Te Aroha to the iwi. It functioned as part of a treaty settlement but it did not settle any claims.Tauranga Moana iwi protested the settlement, saying that it would give Hauraki iwi mana whenua status in Tauranga. They also opposed the Hauraki iwi being represented in local governance. In late 2019, the Waitangi Tribunal found that there were issues with the way that The Crown had reached the settlement. As of 2023, the two iwi groups were still in discussions to resolve the issue.
