Today the new board of Te Runanganui o Ngati Porou met in Gisborne and after voting the board re-appointed Selwyn Parata as its Chair and Rei Kohere as its Deputy Chair.
Mr Parata says, “I look forward to leading the Runanganui forward on behalf of our people. However it is incumbent upon us all – the board, our management and all who represent Te Runanganui o Ngati Porou – to remember our role is to care for our assets and to meet the cultural, social and economic aspirations of Ngati Porou whanau and hapu.”
Over the board’s four year term they will make decisions over Ngati Porou’s $224 million collective asset base, and exercise strategic governance over Ngati Porou Holding Company, Toitu Ngati Porou and Ngati Porou Hauora.
