Recommends
That the Taranaki Regional Council:
a) receives the memorandum …
for and nourished the iwi o Taranaki for generations. These resources were integral to the lives of the people who occupied the settlements that
adjoined the coastline. Tangaroa provided for them materially, acted as a highway for travel, a source of rongoa (medicine), aided their well-being and provided for their spiritual
sustenance.
The coastal environment was highly valued and contained kainga (villages), pa (fortified villages), and pukawa (reefs) for the gathering of mātaitai
