#Hei Whatu Ngaro Ngro he Tangata Ko te Kainga Tu tonu ' 'People disappear from sight But the land remains for ever' - Maori Proverb The subject 'The Maori and his Land' has many points of discussion which to the Maori are all very important. It would take up too much time to discuss or list all of them, instead I will take points of interest from articles already written for guidance to Local Government in treating Maori Land, and from another article from the Maori Dominion Council written to assist the Government in forming the new 'Maori Bill'.
