The purpose of this Supplementary Order Paper is to enable hapū, iwi, and other Māori entities to develop papakāinga without planning barriers. It will do this by allowing the building of papakāinga on whenua Māori as a controlled activity, with no maximum number of dwellings per site. These changes would better address the housing needs of tangata whenua within the framework of the Bill, and help alleviate current issues with housing choice and affordability for Māori in Aotearoa. This will support other complementary initiatives to enable Māori development of papakāinga, recognising that increased development of papakāinga is a Government priority, but planning restrictions remain a barrier.
