Taupo District Council held its co-governance committee meeting in Tūrangi last week, followed by an induction for new Council members and staff conducted by Ngāti Tūrangitukua. The events represent ongoing efforts to strengthen partnership arrangements in the area. Taupo District Council has emphasised its commitment to meeting statutory Treaty of Waitangi obligations and acknowledges partnership as the basis of Te Tiriti.
