amongst the kids, as well as a
gumboot decorating and colouringin
competition. Christchurch, North

‘Stressful’
time as
brigades
try to
separate
fire crews
• By Kristie Boland
VOLUNTEER firefighters are
planning how to cope with
emergencies if their ranks are
depleted by Covid-19.
Nationwide, brigades are
making operational changes to
ensure there is
no disruption
to services
while making
sure Omicron
doesn’t spread
through the
stations.
Some brigades
are splitting into
two groups, but
Andrew
Norris
for the Governors Bay Volunteer
Fire Brigade, this is not an option.
Chief Andrew Norris said splitting
his crew in half would not
work because the crew see each
other daily.
“For some brigades where the
members live separate lifestyles
and have different circles it will
work, but for half our crew, they’re
meeting everywhere else so splitting
them at the station is just not
really effective.’’ • Turn to page 5

No reopening date for road
• By Chris Barclay
SOME BANKS Peninsula
residents effectively cut off
since a wild weather event in
mid-December have relocated to
Akaroa as uncertainty continues
over the restoration of their road
to the outside world.
Access to Goughs Bay has been
limited since floods and slips
made the road servicing the tiny
rural settlement impassable 10
days before Christmas.
Although the city council and
contractors Fulton Hogan are
working to establish temporary
access through properties to
adjacent Paua Bay, residents
have been critical of the recovery
response.
There are fears it could be at
least a year before the road is
reopened.
In the meantime, long-term
residents John and Carol Masefield
depend on a quad bike and
temporary access through a
neighbouring property run by
Lyndon Palmer to reach Akaroa
and beyond.
Palmer’s wife Sandie Stewart
and two school-aged children
have relocated to a rental property
in Akaroa now classes are
underway.
Masefield appreciated the

drive access, but was still
frustrated about the status of
Goughs Bay Rd.
“All the other bays have
got access in and out, even
if the roads are not perfect,
we’ve got nothing,” he said.
Masefield spoke to city
council staff last week, but a
time frame for Goughs Bay
Rd’s reinstatement was not
forthcoming.
However, Banks Peninsula
councillor and deputy mayor
Andrew Turner provided some
clarity.
He said the repair design has
been approved for construction
and discussions were underway

with a landowner impacted by
the work.
“We’re working through the
legal requirements because
the road will be built in a
slightly different alignment
which involves the use of
private land.
“I wouldn’t want to put
a timeline on it, we should
have a clearer idea of what
needs to be done and how
long it’s going to take in a couple
of weeks.
“We’ve moved as quickly as we
can here. I appreciate residents
are frustrated they don’t have
that permanent road access,”
Turner said.
He said the temporary access
for residents should be completed
in a fortnight, weather permitting,
while slips on Goughs
Bay Rd should be cleared within
a month.
Turner revealed a review and
“lessons learned” report was
being compiled by council staff.
“Then we’re keen to set up a
meeting for affected residents
to discuss what we did well and
what we didn’t do well,” he said.
Aspiring mayor Phil Mauger
visited Goughs Bay last month
and was critical of the initial
council reaction, especially
around communication with
residents.
Mauger did not return calls to

Helen Tulett has been appointed
Lyttelton’s first ever Carbon
Coach. The initiative is a part of
the Sustainability Fund that was
set up by city council last year
to assist community action on

and Community Resilience
Committee approved $121,689
in August for eight proposals
aimed at reducing emissions
and building resilience to local
climate impacts. The city council
supported Project Lyttelton with
a $20,000 grant to establish a
Community Carbon Coach to

Becoming Forrest
one Man’s epic run across america
by rob Pope
The remarkable true story of an unrivalled journey to recreate the greatest run in film history: 15,621
miles, five-times across the United States.
Becoming Forrest is the incredible story of Englishman Rob Pope, a veterinarian who left his job in pursuit
of a dream – to become the first person ever to complete the epic run undertaken by one of Hollywood’s
most beloved characters, Forrest Gump. After his momma urged him “to do one thing in life that made a
difference”, he flew to Alabama, put on his running shoes, and sped off into the wilderness.
His remarkable journey covered 15,600 miles, the distance from the North to the South Pole and a third
of the way back. Over a grueling 18 months, braving injuries, blizzards, forest fires and deadly wildlife,
he crossed the United States five times. During one of the most turbulent periods in recent American
history, Rob immersed himself in American life. His time on the open road saw him forever changed,
trying to make that difference, in the process of Becoming Forrest.
This is a tale of one man who just wanted to make a difference.
Words of Comfort
Grief comes in all shapes and sizes.
How to Find Hope
by rebekah Ballagh
Grief comes in many different forms. You may have lost a loved one, you may be experiencing
a separation or relationship breakup, you may have had a major change in your life, you
may be battling through health issues, you may have a friend or loved one who is grieving, or
maybe you work with people experiencing grief.
Whatever your reason, Words of Comfort is here to help. Treat it as a companion in your grief,
an empathetic safe space and a beacon of hope. All of your feelings are welcome here.
This book explores the experience of grieving and the emotions and thoughts that may surface.
It offers strategies to help you navigate through your grief, and takes a look at some of the
things we can learn from the journey. I hope you find some comfort in these pages.
Magnifico!: The A to Z of Queen
by Mark Blake
The story of Queen is rich with anecdotes, trivia, humour and tragedy - accompanied by some of the
best-known songs of all time. In this revealing profile, acclaimed biographer Mark Blake uses a unique
‘A to Z’ approach to shed new light on the legendary band. With every entry aiming to celebrate, inform,
entertain or amuse, Blake’s complete portrait covers not only the major hits and bestselling albums, but
also the inside stories behind the music. Via a series of essays, lists and mini biographies, the author
shares a wealth of lesser-known details - gained from over thirty years of original interviews - and
explores what the songs of Queen say about their creators. The book’s format also allows it to take
fascinating tangents, charting the places, characters and events that, often inadvertently, played a part
in shaping the band and informing its music. Elsewhere, entries offer light-hearted trivia - from a list of
LPs the band was listening to in 1970 to tales of the fifteen Jimi Hendrix gigs Freddie Mercury hitchhiked
around the UK to attend - as well as serious analysis, including the truth behind Mercury’s funeral, which
was effectively controlled by Queen’s management, and a reflection on the ways in which the flamboyant
frontman confronted the twentieth century’s sexual mores and prejudices. Addressing the phenomenal
success of Bohemian Rhapsody, while challenging the fictionalised account it sold to cinemagoers,
Blake builds on the band’s enduring audience appeal in order to provide a fresh and unparalleled take on
Queen’s music, story and legacy.

Visitor numbers drop
at bayside museums
• By Kristie Boland
MUSEUM VISITOR numbers
are dwindling with some
museums seeing nearly half the
amount of visitors compared to
last year.
Akaroa Museum visitor
numbers are at 50-60 per cent
of last year’s, with the month of
January – usually the museum’s
busiest – at less than 50 per cent.
Less than 2500 people visited in
January 2022, compared to 5000
the previous January.
Museum director Lynda
Wallace said this may be due to
the requirement of vaccination
passes, along with people being
cautious about travelling this
summer.
“Akaroa Museum’s experience
is not unique. Other museums
throughout the country, particularly
in smaller centres, have also
experienced 40-50 per cent drops
in visitor numbers this summer,”
Wallace said.
Visitor numbers were down 40
per cent at Okains Bay Museum.
However, it was only open 114
days compared to 357 in the
2019-20 year.
The museum reopened in
October 2020 after a six-month

Okains Bay Museum general
manager Wendy Riley said: “Our
2021 December numbers were
slightly up on 2020 due to a new
event bringing in additional and
new visitors.
“Christmas at the Museum was
so successful we plan on making
it an annual event.”
Riley said this January was
down 23 per cent on January 2021.
February was likely to show
a considerable reduction
in numbers due to the
cancellation of the Waitangi
Day commemorations, which
generally attract 1800-3000

‘We’ve just got to
try and do our best’
• From page 1
Diamond Harbour
Volunteer Fire Brigade chief
Bob Palmer has found the
changes stressful.
Diamond Harbour now has
two teams, one on day shifts
and one on night shifts, and the
crews are encouraged not
to mix outside of their
groups.
“It’s actually quite
stressful because it means
that during the day and
the night you have only
half of your brigade
that you can use and
sometimes some of them
are away or unwell so
a bit of pressure on the
troopies at the moment,” Palmer
said.
The Diamond Harbour
brigade has a pool of about 21
firefighters. Volunteers have to
ensure all their data is up to date
when they are available.
“It’s quite stressful because
you have to be right on the ball
about who is available and who
is not. It’s more of a constant
thing,” Palmer said.
“There’s usually a good pool
to draw from but when you’re
on half that strength it becomes
a bit more stressful.”
In the event of an emergency
that required more numbers,
Palmer said they had the option
of calling on a neighbouring
brigade. Or, if the whole brigade
was needed, they would do their
best to work separate from each
other.
“We’ve just got to try and do
our best to keep our team safe
from infection, it’s
quite a difficult thing
to do but we just do
the best that we can,”
Palmer said.
Sumner and
Lyttelton fire brigades
are doing something
similar.
Chief fire officer
for Sumner, Daryl
Sayer, has split the
team in two.
Due to lower number
availability during the day,
the brigade cannot maintain
separation for work hours callouts.
“We ensure that precautions
are taken like masking and
distancing as much as possible.
The down side is that half the
brigade can’t train with the
other half for the time being,”
said Sayer.
Lyttelton Volunteer Fire
Brigade has split into two teams
who are taking week about with
separate training, said chief fire
officer Mark Buckley.

Pharmacist drops the mortar
and pestle to help fight fires
In the second of our
series on fire chiefs,
reporter Kristie Boland
talks to Sumner’s Daryl
Sayer
WHEN HIS pager activates,
Redcliffs residents might catch a
glimpse of their local pharmacist
Daryl Sayer making the switch
from pharmacist to firefighter.
Sayer, 53, has spent almost
three decades as a member of the
Sumner Volunteer Fire Brigade –
over half his life.
Growing up in the small town
of Foxton, he watched family
friends be a part of the local fire
brigade.
“It appealed to me as a good
way to become a part of the community
you’re in,” Sayer said.
He later made the move to the
South Island where he studied to
become a pharmacist at Otago
University.
In 1991, Sayer moved to Sumner
and shortly after, joined the
brigade.
He started out learning the
ropes and over the years has
made his way up the ranks.
“I started at the bottom and
just expected to be one of the
firefighters. I hardly expected to
actually move up into leadership
positions, it became a natural
progression as time went on,” he
said.
He took a break from the
brigade in 1994 and travelled
overseas with his wife Catherine.
They lived in the United Kingdom
for a couple of years while
Sayer managed a pharmacy in
Kent.
When they returned, he
resumed his role as a firefighter,
then, in 2014, he became the
chief fire officer of the Sumner
brigade.
Being a volunteer firefighter is
a very serious job but sometimes,
Sayer said, they get to have a
good laugh.
HELPING OUT: A firefighter
for 31 years at the Sumner
Volunteer Fire Brigade, as
well as a pharmacist, Daryl
Sayer feels privileged to
serve his community.
PHOTOS: STAR MEDIA
He recalled being called out
to an elderly patient in cardiac
arrest. When Sayer and his team
arrived, the patient’s wife was
administering chest compressions.
Sayer asked the woman to stop so
he could take over.
“I did the usual: ‘Can you hear
me?’ and surprisingly he said:
‘Yeah, I can hear you’. I said: ‘Do
you have any pain?’ He said: ‘Only
where she’s been pushing on my
chest’. I count that as a successful
medical call, we had a good laugh
after that one,” Sayer said.
Sayer has been a pharmacist
for 32 years, and he and
Catherine own Redcliffs
Pharmacy. The couple, who have
been married for 30 years, have
two daughters, Bridget, 24, and
Megan, 22.
His daughters have followed in
their dad’s footsteps and became
health professionals – Bridget
a radiographer and Megan a
pharmacist.
Outside of the pharmacy
and the fire brigade, Sayer likes
to keep fit, walking on the
beach and up in the hills. He
also enjoys a game of golf on
weekends.
For Sayer, being a part of
the fire brigade is all about the
people, both in the brigade itself
and in the community.
“I’m privileged to be serving
with a group of 20 other people
here, but it’s also getting out
into our community, and it’s the
people in our community that
come and thank us for what we
do. It helps us see we can actually
make a difference.”
Sumner’s brigade is made up
of a collection of people with
diverse backgrounds and a range
of professions.
“Basically they’re all here for
the same reason, that is the
community, and it’s a great
group of people to be working
with,” Sayer said.
It was the 2010 and 2011
earthquakes that really brought
the brigade and the community
together.
“The earthquakes were a
big moment in the life of the
brigade and in my life. We
encountered things that we’d
never encountered before.”
Sumner Fire Station faced the
challenge of running without
power or plumbing until the
Defence Force, local tradies and
the NZ Fire Service helped to
get it back up and running as a
standalone base.
“It brought the members of
the brigade together as a group
but also brought the community
closer to the brigade as well.
They were very supportive of us,
they brought us food and offered
help, I think it was a big joining
together.”
Sayer doesn’t have a timeframe
on how long he will remain the
chief of the Sumner brigade, but
said he will know when the time
is right to pass on the job.
“As long as I’m usefully
giving back to this community
and to the brigade then I will
participate.
“If I find that I’m not being
useful, I try to get feedback from
people and encourage them to let
me know where my failings are.
It would be nice to think that I
can leave when things are still
going well,” Sayer said.

Treasures from the past:
A short history of ironing
THE PRACTICE of using an
application of heat to smooth
fabrics goes back many centuries
– in China, as early as 1 BC,
metal pans filled with hot coals
were used to remove creases and
wrinkles. In Northern Europe
sleek (or slick) stones, glass or
wooden devices were used for
the same purpose.
“. . . shee that wanteth a sleekestone
to smooth hir linnen, wil
take a pebble . . .’’ (a woman with
no sleekstone to smooth her linen
will use a pebble) – John Lyly,
Euphues and his England, 1580.
A set of laundry
irons in a hinged
wooden box. It
includes four irons
and two handles.
One iron is
missing. The maker
was the Enterprise
Manufacturing Co,
Philadelphia, date
unknown.

laundry irons.
Wednesday February 23 2022 Bay Harbour News 11
Flat irons or sad irons were
first made by blacksmiths in the
Middle ages, (‘sad’ coming from
Middle English, meaning ‘solid’,
as they were made of cast iron)
to keep a Lord and Lady looking
sharp. By the late 19th and early
20th centuries, a well pressed
outfit denoted a social status
desirable to many. There were
many different types of flat iron,
heated by either fire, charcoal,
kerosene, ethanol, whale oil, natural
gas, carbide gas (acetylene,
as with carbide lamps), or even
gasoline.
This set of irons from the museum’s
collection tells us a number
of things about the history of
ironing technology. As flat irons
heated on a fire did not hold
their heat indefinitely, a laundress
(sic) required more than
one in order to have one heating
whilst another was in use. They
were heavy and bulky, weighing
anywhere from 2-4kg; originally
with metal handles, they often
caused scalds and burns.
Hence it was that in the early
1870s, an inventive young American
woman, Mary Florence
Potts, designed and patented
the detachable wooden handles
that you see in these examples.
Her sensible inventions were exhibited
at the 1876 Philadelphia
Exposition World’s Fair and the
1893 Chicago World’s Fair and
became the most popular heavy
metal irons in North America,
Europe and as far away as the
South Pacific.
Advances in ironing technology
continued in the ensuing
decades – the electric iron was
patented in 1882 by Henry W.
Seeley. This was a significant
breakthrough but it was still
difficult to control the heat –
thermostatically controlled irons
were available from the 1920’s.
Electrically charged steam
irons, similar to contemporary
designs, became popular in the
1940s, the original concept credited
to Thomas Sears.
At the same time, many modern
fabrics (developed in or after
the mid-twentieth century) such
as polyester and nylon do not
require ironing at all, and what
was once heavy and sometimes
dangerous work is now light,
quick and safe.
The second photo shows the
Museum’s founder, Baden Norris,
holding two other irons from
the collection.
Te Ūaka The Lyttelton
Museum has a number of
different irons which are
viewable on the website,
however nothing like the 1300
items in one of the largest
international iron collections,
held at Gochsheim Castle near
Karlsruhe in Germany.

New Peugeot 208 in smart company
PEUGEOT’S new 208 hatchback
didn’t win the 2021 New Zealand
Motoring Writers’ Guild Car of
the Year Award.
However, it was nominated
and was up against some pretty
tough competition, and that is
worthy in itself. Incidentally, the
trophy went to Hyundai’s fully
electric Ioniq 5, which gives some
idea of the calibre of cars that
were amongst the 10 finalists.
The 208 has just landed in New
Zealand and is available in just
two variants – that may seem a
little underwhelming, but if you
take into account one of those is
a fully electric model then that is
a car that is targeting an evergrowing
market as buyers realise
EVs look to be the way of the
future.
I drove the EV in December
and formed the conclusion it is
a car that fills its role well – the
daily commute – and with its
348km range between charges it
will happily tackle a long highway
haul.
For those who are not yet ready
to join the electric revolution
Peugeot has also introduced the
new 208 with its 1.2-litre threecylinder
petrol engine which,
incidentally, is pretty much a
carryover.
While that driveline is very
familiar, the new 208 is a vastly
different car, EV aside. For one,
the new body style is dramatic,
it is smooth and sweeping along
with bold frontal treatment that
looks quite aggressive, and it
must be said it is hard to design a
small car so that it looks perfect.
The two model range lists
at $38,990 for the petrol and
$61,990 for the EV, the latter
easily qualifying for the $8625
Government rebate, an incentive
to get people driving affordable
EVs.
The petrol model lists a lot
of goodies for its price tag. You
get leather-type trim, heated
front seats, satellite navigation,
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto,
voice recognition, keyless entry
and ignition, speed limiter and
radar cruise control, the latter are
part of a comprehensive safety
suite.
The look inside is very
modern with sophisticated style
elements and control functions.
It impresses with its functionality
yet quirky design features – take
the steering wheel for example,
it is squared off at the top and
bottom which gives the interior a
sporty look and feel.
Elsewhere, toggle switches
dominate the dash panel, there
are many functions and they are
STYLE: The smooth lines of the Peugeot 208 are contrasted
by an aggressive grille and front bumper structure.

displayed on a dominant centre
graphic panel.
It must be remembered the new
208 comes with a GT badge and
the manufacturers have given it a
sporty look through and through,
take the twin exhausts for
example, they are classy and they
add to the look Peugeot is trying
to encapsulate.
Under the bonnet sits the
wonderful 1199cc engine. It is
a real gem in terms of honesty
and thrift, three-cylinder
engines develop a lot of natural
torque low down which is what
you want in any engine, and if
you add in turbocharged boost
then all the performance you
need is on tap.
In terms of figures, Peugeot
claims power outputs of 96kW
(5500rpm) and 230Nm, the
latter available from just
1750rpm, which translates to
a constant delivery of power.
For interest’s sake the 208 GT
is also listed as GT130, the 130
representing horsepower in
imperial terms.
The engine is coupled to a
six-speed traditional automatic
gearbox and it, too, is a real gem
with smooth shifts and gearing
that is well matched to the power
output, drive thereafter is then
channelled to the front wheels
• Price – Peugeot 208 GT,
$38,990
• Dimensions – Length,
4055mm; width,
1745mm; height,
1430mm
• Configuration – Threecylinder,
front-wheeldrive,
1199cc, 96kW,
230Nm, six-speed
automatic
• Performance –
0-100km/h, 8.3sec
• Fuel usage – 6.3l/100km
through driver-selectable modes
– sport, economy or normal.
The other figures to note are
that of fuel consumption and
performance. Peugeot list a
6.3-litre per 100km combined
cycle average which is a pretty
bold claim, and my average was
a little distant to that at 8l/100km
when I took the car back to the
dealership.
There are several reasons
for that, the evaluation car
was showing just 40km on the
odometer when I picked it up, the
engine barely loosened up, the
other was because the car was so
new and a dealer demonstrator I
didn’t travel for a long distance on
the open road.
I’m not arguing against
Peugeot’s figures because I know
they would be achievable; at
100km/h the engine is sipping
fuel at a rate of just 4.2l/100km
instantaneously, if you are on
a long journey and then tackle
the inner-city traffic on the way
home, that would average out to
be around Peugeot’s claim.
When presented with a
corner or two the 208 has
positive directional accuracy
and a wonderful steering feel.
It is surprisingly compliant
underneath and that is a Peugeot
hallmark, the balance between
handling and comfort is far from
compromised.
Riding on beautiful Michelin
tyres (205/45 x 17in) there is a
constant delivery of information
as to what the rubber is dong
in relation to the road surface,
ripples are readily absorbed and
body balance in a corner is well
controlled with little sway or
uneven motion.
You could say I was a little
disappointed the 208 didn’t win
the Car of the Year, it scored
highly on my individual voting
sheet, it is a car that has low
running costs both petrol and
electric, yet it still adds an
element of fun and functionality.

Wednesday February 23 2022 Bay Harbour News 17
A huge opportunity to purchase a large,
prime slice of the well-known ‘Redcliffs
Riviera’. This remarkable situation is a rarity
with approx. 47m frontage and deep-water
access, seldom available in this amazing area
of Christchurch.
The true value here is the location; the
views are all encompassing from Rapanui
- Shag rock in the east, across Te Karoro
Karoro - Southshore Spit to the north and
west. The wide vista also incorporates all
aspects of the Port Hills including Clifton
Hill, Moncks Spur and Balmoral Hill, with
Whitewash Heads and Scarborough in the
distance.
Previously owned as several social housing
units, some badly affected by the earthquakes
have since been demolished - currently there
are six tenantable units available in a single
block, which have now been vacated.
Zoned Residential Suburban land in one
freehold title of 2,385sqm, the options for
purchasers are varied.
Surrounded by prestigious homes it is an
unrivalled site with the potential for dream
homes, mixed use or future development.
Families who love water activities will make
full use of the sheltered, aquatic playground
right on your doorstep! Enjoy the privilege of
waking to the sunrise, viewing the amazing
sunsets and the constant moving of the tides;
you will never be tired of the views.
With a short commute to the city and part
of the coastal pathway linking Ferrymead
to Sumner, the location is ideal. The
Redcliffs area is increasing in popularity
with its seaside vibe, easy access to bike,
walking tracks, parks and rural areas of the
surrounding Port Hills.
Explore your options for this exclusive
piece of Real Estate.
Agents will be on-site Saturdays and
Sundays, so come and experience the magic
of this location for yourself.

Application to extend the Lyttleton Harbour/Whakaraupō
Mātaitai Reserve, Canterbury
Pursuant to Regulation 17 of the Fisheries (South Island
Customary Fishing) Regulations 1999, Te Hapū o Ngāti
Wheke (Rāpaki) Rūnanga have applied to extend the Lyttleton
Harbour/Whakaraupō Mātaitai Reserve.
Proposed area
The proposed extension covers all that area of South Island
fisheries waters enclosed by a line:
a) starting at a point on the mean high-water mark near the
eastern extremity of Ōtokitoki / Gollans Bay at 43°35.950’S
and 172°45.450’E; then
b) proceeding along the mean high-water mark in a generally
north-easterly direction to a point at Awaroa / Godley Head
at 43°35.234’S and 172°48.535’E; then
c) proceeding in a straight line in a south-easterly direction
to a point on the mean high-water mark at Te Piaka /
Adderley Head at 43°36.228’S and 172°49.566’E; then
d) proceeding along the mean high-water mark in a
generally south-westerly direction to a point near the
eastern extremity of Deep Gully Bay at 43°37.092’S and
172°46.147’E; then
e) proceeding in a straight line in a north-westerly direction to
the starting point.
The approximate area of the proposed mātaitai extension is
11.08 km 2 .
Mātaitai do not affect private landowners’ land titles, or their
ability to exercise resource consents for such things as taking
water or extracting gravel or sand. Resource consents are
managed under the Resource Management Act 1991.
Consultation on the proposed Mātaitai Reserve extension
Pursuant to Regulation 18, this notice invites written or
electronic submissions from the local community on the
application. The local community is defined as those persons
who own land in the proximity of the proposed mātaitai reserve,
or have a place of residence in the proximity of the proposed
mātaitai reserve and have been in occupation for a cumulative
period of no less than three months in the three consecutive
years immediately prior to January 2022.
Pursuant to Regulation 19(1), a further notice will be published
to advertise a public meeting with the local community to
discuss the application. The public meeting will be held in
accordance with the COVID-19 Protection Framework.
Further information about mātaitai reserves, including a map of
this proposed mātaitai reserve extension and the application, is
available on the Ministry for Primary Industries website (www.
mpi.govt.nz/consultations), or by contacting Fisheries New
Zealand at the below address.
Submission process
Submissions must be made by 5pm on Monday 28 March
2022.
Mātaitai Reserves
A mātaitai reserve is an identified traditional fishing ground and
is established for the purpose of customary food gathering.
Mātaitai reserves are limited to fisheries waters and do not
include any land area.
Commercial fishing is banned within a mātaitai unless:
• The applicants for the mātaitai request conditions that
enable some commercial fishing to continue; and
• The Minister for Oceans and Fisheries approves that Submissions are public information
request.
Fishing by the local community for recreational or customary
purposes would only be affected if the Minister for Oceans and
Fisheries subsequently approves a request from the Tangata
Tiaki to make bylaws for fishing in the mātaitai. Bylaws apply
only to the taking of fish, not to other activities such as land
use, recreational activities such as boating or kayaking, or
shipping channels.
Mātaitai do not change the public’s ability to access areas of
public land adjoining the mātaitai. Mātaitai also do not change
any existing arrangements for access to private land.
