Kua whakaputa te heamana hou o te tarahiti o Port Nicholson i ona hiahia kia tuku tono atu ki te Roopu Whakamana i Te Tiriti i Waitangi mo ngā kaupapa toko i te ora a te Kawanatanga.
He tauhou ia ki te turanga o te heamana, engari kua patoto ke a Neville Baker ki te kuaha a te Kawanatanga.
Ko te nuinga o Taranaki Whanui e noho ana ki waho o te rohe o Te Whanganui a Tara, heoi ki taa Neville, ko te iwi anake e mohio ana ki o ratou taumahatanga, ehara ko te Kawantanga.
Ko te tumanako ia, ma te whakaaro Māori, e whai oranga ai a Ngāi Māori. Hei nga wiki e tu mai nei ka whiriwhiri a Neville i tēnei take, me te whakatau mena ranei ka tono atu ia ki te Rōpu Whakamana i te Tiriti.
