2020 Reporting of Breach of Te Tiriti/The Treaty edit

The 2020 reporting section accurately quotes from the RNZ article, but the editorialising of the RNZ article misrepresents the Waitangi Tribunal report, which is apparent even from the section they quoted. The Waitangi Tribunal has not determined that the MACA Act itself is in breach of te Tiriti/the Treaty. Rather, the Tribunal determined, as a result of the first stage of its Inquiry, that the Crown's implementation of the Act has been in breach of te Tiriti/the Treaty.

The Tribunal has yet to determine whether or not the Act itself is in breach of te Tiriti/the Treaty. It will do so in Stage 2 of the MACA Inquiry, which is currently ongoing.

My preference would be for the article to be changed to reflect that it is the Crown's implementation of the Act, not the Act itself (yet), that was found to be in breach. I'm aware that Wikipedia places high priority on sourcing directly to media articles, but in this case this is a relatively minor misunderstanding, in a niche area of law.122.58.40.99 (talk) 00:23, 4 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
