About the Register
“TPT has established a register (the Register) of members of the affiliates it represents. If you are of Te Arawa descent and can whakapapa to at least one of the 11 affiliates, then you have an interest in the TPT settlement. Therefore we encourage you to register by filling in the registration form which can be downloaded by clicking on the link below. It is important to register all whanau members, including every dependent child. This will enable you and your whanau’s interest to be recognised in the TPT settlement. Young adults aged 17 years and over should fill out their own form.
On the second page there is provision to include up to six generations of whakapapa of Te Arawa descent, if you can. One or two generations back may be all that is necessary for kuia/koroua (elderly) to enable the validators to recognise and validate. But three or more generations may be necessary for tamariki/mokopuna (children grandchildren).
Supplementary pages are provided if you wish to declare your whakapapa to more than one affiliate iwi/hapu. Whakapapa provided on the TPT register may be validated by TPT in consultation with Te Pukenga Kaumatua o Te Arawa (Council of Elders of Te Arawa).”
Any queries about the register can be contacted here registration@tpota.org.nz
