Ngāti Paoa Iwi Trust
Election Update
The Ngāti Pāoa Iwi Trust would like to announce an Election for Trustees and invites interested candidates to put their name forward to join the board. There are three vacancies to be filled. The newly elected trustees will serve the remainder of the term with the existing trustees until September 2023. The Ngāti Pāoa Iwi Trust (NPIT) election will open for nominations on Friday 1st July and close on Friday 22 July.
The board looks forward to welcoming new board members who are passionate about improving outcomes for our whānau, our hapū, and our iwi of Ngāti Pāoa.
This year the Iwi Trust AGM will be held at Kerepēhi Marae, McGowan Avenue, Kerepēhi on Sunday 25th September 2022 from 10am-12pm followed by kaihākari.
Our NPIT board members will provide an update on our Settlement and provide an overview of the past (where we’ve come from), the present (our current projects and activities), and future opportunities.
Look forward to seeing there!
