A report of activities and audited financial accounts are available to tribal members on an annual basis. Regular hui are held throughout the year to discuss important issues and as part of a mandating process to test opinion and make decisions.
The treaty claims noted above have all been endorsed by the governing body of tribal representatives and many hui over the last seven years. In addition a deed of mandate has been signed by several constituent iwi, some marae in the region and various other
claimants. A copy of the Mandate For Prosecution of Hauraki Claims By Hauraki Maori Trust Board is reproduced as Appendix 2.
