View Details New Zealand ACT Leader David Seymour calls into question the Treaty of Waitangi Bill, claiming everyone in the country has a “right to say about its future”.

“For a very long time, a huge number of people have been told unless you’re a self-appointed expert, a treaty lawyer, an Iwi leader, then you don’t have a role to play in interpreting the Treaty of Waitangi,” Mr Seymour said.

“We actually need to be a country that is modern and mature, multi-ethnic, has a place for everybody, and everybody has a right to say about its future. What we have just done today is open that whole debate about the treaty up to everyone.”
