For City Counselling this week Sofia caught up with Councillor Julie Fairey about the annual Local Government New Zealand conference last week as well as Auckland Councilâs Shoreline Adaptation Plans.
She also speaks to Greenpeace Aotearoaâs programme director, Niamh OâFlynn, about changes announced this week to the Fast-Track Approvals Bill.
And she also speaks to lawyer Harry Clatworthy from Te Mata Law about the governmentâs plans to restore a tougher test for Maori customary title claims in the foreshore and seabed and the urgent Waitangi Tribunal inquiry into this.
Earlier this year, Treaty Negotiations Minister Paul Goldsmith in a private meeting with Oceans and Fisheries Minister Shane Jones and seafood industry representatives discussed potential changes to the Marine and Coastal Area (Takutai Moana) Act 2011, which is a piece of legislation that replaced the controversial Foreshore and Seabed Act 2004.
The Takutai Moana Act allows MÄori to apply for certain customary rights over the foreshore and seabed under customary marine title.
The government intends to change section 58 of the Act which currently requires an applicant group to prove they have "exclusively used and occupied it from 1840 to the present day without substantial interruption". The proposed changes would change the section 58 test to reduce the 100% of coastline subject to customary marine title to 5%.
As a result, an urgent Waitangi Tribunal claim into the governmentâs proposed changes to the Act had its hearings this week.
This is the seventh urgent inquiry by the Tribunal into the coalition governmentâs policies.
Producer Sofia spoke to lawyer at Te Mata Law, Harry Clatworthy (NgÄti Ranginui, Ngai Te Rangi, and NgÄti Uenuku-KĹpako), about these proposed changes as well as the historical context of foreshore and seabed ownership in Aotearoa.
On Sunday, the government announced changes to the Fast Track Bill.
Of the most notable of the changes, the Bill will no longer give three ministers sign-off powers, having now delegated that responsibility to a panel of independent experts.
This comes after widespread public protest and submissions against the Bill.
Although these changes mean less power will be concentrated in the hands of three ministers than had been previously proposed, environmental groups continue to criticise the bill, saying these changes are not enough.
Producer Sofia spoke to Greenpeace Aotearoaâs Programme Director, Niamh OâFlynn, about these changes and Greenpeaceâs response.
Last week was the annual Local Government New Zealand conference.
Although Auckland Council voted to leave Local Government New Zealand in March last year, notably at the conference, Prime Minister Christopher Luxon said he wants councils to âdo the basics brilliantlyâ and not be distracted by ânice-to-havesâ and that Cabinet was looking into limiting council expenditure as a result.
Additionally, Auckland Council is currently seeking public input on the future of coastal management in response to the climate crisis.
The Councilâs Shoreline Adaptation Programme and Plans look at how Council responds to coastal hazards and climate change over the next 100 years.
Producer Sofia caught up with Councillor Julie Fairey about both of these topics.
