Treaty Principles Bill Oral Submissions Monday 27 Feb

Came across a post on Bluesky from Ganesh Ahirao with the schedule of TPB oral submitters appearing before the Justice Committee on Monday. It's being livestreamed, so a good opportunity to see and hear proceedings first hand. View the post and attached image of the schedule here.

It's a veritable who's who of scholarship in te Tiriti, constitutional law, history, economics and social services. The morning session is peppered with the likes of Gary Judd and David Farrar (vom) but also includes Janine Hayward, Areti Metuamate and organisations like the Bar Association and iwi trusts. I've blocked out my afternoon from 2.30pm to hear from the likes of E tu, Marilyn Waring, Jane Kelsey, Andrew Little, Ani Mikaere, Ganesh, and Vincent O'Malley. The day rounds out with Act Party shill Gerrard Eckhoff which feels a little rigged TBH.

Livestreams run from the Justice Committee's page on the Parliament website and recordings are usually available for a week or so after the event.
