Kia ora koutou,

The results for the 2012 Runanga Board Election have now been declared.

We would like to take this time to acknowledge our retiring Chair, Riki WiNeera for the contribution he has made to the Runanga and iwi over the past 4 years. In his role as Chair Riki has been party to the signing of the Aquaculture Settlement and our History Treaty Claims, Agreement in Principle.

Thank you to all those that stood for the positions of the iwi elected representatives.

The results are:
