The Green Party’s Te Mātāwaka Caucus welcome the Government’s investment into iwi Māori-led housing initiatives.

“Whānau的福祉始于温暖，干燥，负担得起的房屋。我们欢迎今天的宣布，这是朝着正确方向迈出的一步。

“The policies of successive governments – including a lack of coordination across agencies and the systemic underfunding of new developments – have prevented Māori-led housing solutions. As a result of this,毛利人拥有房屋的可能性要小得多，IWI和Hapū面对自己土地上住房发展的障碍。

“Now that the funds allocated in the Budget are finally available, let’s make sure those funds get to the right placeswith housing solutions driven by Māori, for Māori. A local example is Te Aitanga a Māhaki Trust who is well underway to deliver131 relocatable houses to Tairāwhiti in the coming months.This is what honouring Te Tiriti o Waitangi, Tino Rangatiratanga me Mana Motuhake looks like.

“For Māori, it’s not just walls that make a home. A home is somewhere that is secure and affordable, where we can put down roots, raise our rangatahi, tamariki, mokopuna and manaaki whānau who are in need. Māori know how to achieve that for our people and need to be involved in all levels of housing decision-making and development."

“毛利人和太平洋人民受到当前住房危机的最大打击。他们的房屋所有权率远低于帕凯（Pākeha），分别降至31％和21％。结果，他们更依赖私人租赁市场，并且容易受到螺旋式租赁成本的影响。这导致缺乏安全性，使Whānau更难扎根于互联社区。”绿党住房发言人马玛·戴维森（Marama Davidson）说。

“作为该政府的一部分，绿党将继续与劳工合作，以满足我们不同社区的代际生活需求的方式来解决住房危机的措施。”
