Four years after the occupation by "protectors" began, a deal on the future of the land at Ihumātao has been announced by the government.

At the site last night there was relief, exhaustion and smiles, among people from the frontline of the fight. RNZ's Māori News Director Māni Dunlop has been covering the story.
