Treaty settlement commitments

  • Relationship Agreements: arrangements designed to establish a framework through which the Crown and iwi or hapū can work collaboratively on a range of matters, include those related to Crown-owned minerals.
  • Energy and Resources Accords: arrangements outlining how particular resources or places are managed between the Crown and iwi and hapū (e.g. Energy and Resources Accords have been entered into regarding the management of the Waikato River).
