Mana whenua to place rāhui around Waiheke
Mana whenua on Waiheke island are placing a 2 year rāhui around the island in a bid to stop four species of kaimoana from disappearing. The iwi, Ngāti Pāoa, has been worried for years about declining inshore biodiversity on the Hauraki Gulf's most populated island and a restriction will be imposed from this weekend with community support. Te Aorewa Rolleston has the story.
