Te Kotahitanga Roopu is a governance working group that has been formed by both Tātau Tātau Trust and E Tipu boards. The Roopu includes Pieri Munro (Chairperson), Phillip Beattie and Oha Manuel from the Trust and Commercial Directors, Shayne Walker and Renata Hakiwai.

Kotahitanga are tasked with providing a report and recommendations to the TToTW boards on Kāhui members’ views, perspectives, advantages, disadvantages, and recommendations of remaining in the TToTW Group or exiting and seeking independence. To make sure your voice is included and the report is fair and balanced, Kotahitanga has commissioned Ihi Research Ltd to reach out to whānau and Kāhui members.

We’re inviting you to take part in a short, 7-minute survey to share your views, perspectives, and any advantages or disadvantages you see in staying with the group or seeking independence. Your participation is anonymous, completely voluntary, and you can stop the survey at any time.

Your feedback is important and will directly influence the recommendations given to the TToTW boards. If you have any questions or concerns about the survey or your rights as a participant, please contact Cath Leonard at Ihi Research on 027 777 9111 or email catherine@ihi.co.nz.

Make your voice heard, take the survey, and help shape the future of Te Rohe o Te Wairoa!
