  Waitangi Tribunal - About the Reports
It is then apparent that the strength of a hapu rested not on the maintenance of exclusive boundaries but on the extent of their connections.
The historical record also shows that, from at least some 150 years ago, the hapu of the district associating with Ngati Awa operated collectively through runanga, a runanga being a meeting of the elders and rangatira of one or more hapu in the district.
Secondly, the land was confiscated for a subsequent rebellion, but on the facts, the hapu were not in rebellion; they were reacting to an invasion by their former enemies.

The Hapus were very tired that night and mostly fell asleep while watching the video, though one opened his eyes long enough to comment that the Kogi language had a lot of Qeshua in it.
But Hapu is an ayllu, a community of about a hundred families who live very widely scattered about their paradise, and one house is not necessarily in sight of the next.
Hapus have learned basic reading and writing in their school, which they attend as children for four to six years.

 Vivi's Orchid Corner - "Hapu Fiber" - December 2000
Hapu fiber retains its shape and consistency when wet and becomes more pliable.
Hapu fiber certainly is much easier on plant roots and your hands than a lava rock mixture.
After a year in the same medium, the Hapu fiber does capture a bit more water than when initially used, however, it stands up well with minimal breakdown.

 Forest road protesters given deadline - 06 Dec 2006 - Maori news - NZ Herald
A Tuhoe hapu are vowing to continue their blockade of a road and forestry land south of Whakatane, despite complaints of criminal behaviour and a warning they have until tomorrow to move.
Members of the hapu are camped on the road and are also preventing workers entering a forestry block owned by a consortium of foreign and local companies, claiming the land is tribal land belonging to Omuriwaka.
She said members of the public could ask permission from the Omuriwaka Marae hapu management committee secretary, whose telephone number was in public notices advertising the blockade, and each request would be considered individually.

 Ngati Ruanui Settlement Bill - Green Party
Those hapu chose not to sell their lands desired by the Crown and their right to retain their land was violently opposed by the Crown.
Hapu must not be punished for choosing not to participate in a Crown process which is ostensibly designed for their benefit but fails to recognise their needs or concerns.
But because the hapu is determined to exercise their rangatiratanga as an independent hapu, they are excluded from any resolution, their lands are used in settlement without their consent and they are forced into a position of opposition to those hapu closest to them.

 THINK MAGAZINE • BARS & PUBS: Hapu   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Hapu (New Zealand Mauri word meaning "friends") is a cozy little underground joint in Jiriho Z Podebrad with good lighting and a lighthearted atmosphere.
The thing that distinguishes this Czech pub from the rest of the pack, is its wide assortment of unique mixed drinks and cocktails, poured extremely generously by the owner and bartender Martin.
Hapu is true to its name; the vibrant and welcoming atmosphere is free of any pretentions you might expect in a place started by ex-Radosters.

Unfortunately, however, a significant number of Iwi, Hapu and Whanau were absent due to commemorations of the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi in Kaitaia, which was being held at the AandP show grounds that same morning.
Hapu hold full ownership of 100% of the resource affected by the reforms, including foreshores, seabed, coastal areas and sea space.
Given the short timeframe it was acknowledged that the Far North Iwi, Hapu, Whanau working group would need to show determination, fortitude and leadership to draft submissions which reflect the position of their various beneficiaries.

 Some Thoughts on the Future of Ngati Kahungunu
On the marae and in the hapu the role of tohunga falls to those who are best trained and suited to the job at hand; they are self-selecting through their aptitude, their training and their competence.
We have settled on a Taiwhenua structure which might be developed to serve whanau and hapu developmental needs, but we have used it to usurp the authentic representative rangatiratanga structures of the people, and in some cases to be the structure which is being economically developed, rather than whanau and hapu.
It is a loose confederation of iwi and hapu and the structure we adopt must reflect that reality, rather than a political ideology, or an idea created and imposed by Departments of Native and Maori Affairs, or by ill-informed Pakeha commentary from a colonial era.

From a social development perspective, the importance of communities, iwi and hapu lies in their huge contribution to social wellbeing.

 Editorial: Hapu's shaky hand was played with finesse - 14 Jun 2006 - One Tree Hill
It is a credit to the small Ngati Whatua hapu of Orakei, and their trust board chairman, Sir Hugh Kawharu, that their Auckland-wide land claim has proceeded now to the point of settlement with so little public acrimony.
Auckland was a colonial creation, greatly helped by the goodwill of hapu who provisioned the settlement and provided labour and land for its expansion.
The hapu's most lucrative element in the latest deal may turn out to be a right to buy $80 million of residential land at the Devonport Naval base.

 LifeWeb: Elisabet's Hapu Journal
Somehow we got there, to the top, to the snowy pass marked by stone towers built by those who had come before--the few people of Hapu, mostly men, who had come out into the world beyond their valley, or perhaps the priest who came once a year, or the schoolteacher brought in by horseback.
He liked their emphasis on morality, being a man who stays apart when the men of Hapu get into chicha and alcohol--the dangerously pure kind that sells cheap in Andean villages and causes sometimes nasty drunkenness visible in the occasional fleyes of women, even in Hapu.
One morning the elders came to sit with us in a circle on the grass of the schoolyard, to discuss formally Diana's proposal that she have postcards made from her photos of Hapu, to sell as a project benefiting the community.

 Eight arrested in hapu's bid for Far North farm - 17 Oct 2006 - Maori news - NZ Herald
Eight members of Ngati Aukiwa hapu were arrested as they walked up a driveway to the entrance of the manager's residence of Stony Creek Station, 10km south of Mangonui.
They were part of a group of 25 hapu members who had gathered outside the 2275ha property to face about 20 police and 12 police vehicles, parked to block off the two main entrances.
A 49-day hapu occupation of shearers' quarters and the farm's main woolshed was ended by police in February last year when they evicted the group and arrested two leaders.

The plans are important as they provide hapu and iwi with an input into certain decisions concerning their interests.
Such hapu/iwi documents are therefore very useful to hapu, iwi, council and the regional and district communities.
It is also important for hapu and iwi to ensure that the plans are discussed widely among their members and formally endorsed by them.

This confederation of hapu comprising Ngati Awa held mana whenua from time to time between Ohiwa in the east to Maungawhakamana and the Pongakawa River in the west.
From the total land confiscated the hapu of Ngati Awa retained 77,870 acres in the form of reserves.

 Some Core Values For Resolving The Foreshore And Seabed Issue   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
The nature and extent of Iwi and Hapu title and rights to the foreshore are aspects of te tino rangatiratanga which only Iwi and Hapu have the right to define.
Rather the Crown should negotiate in good faith with Iwi and Hapu to ensure that tupuna title and rights are recognized and exercised in such a way that guarantees access on reasonable terms for others in the community.
The Crown should also negotiate in good faith with Iwi and Hapu to determine the amount of compensation payable by the Crown for past denials of tupuna title and rights to the foreshore and seabed.

It is based upon transcripts of the discussions at the hui which led to the Declaration as well as the written submissions received from those Iwi and Hapu that were not able to be present.
Perhaps more importantly it acknowledges that the government authority to extinguish or redefine Iwi and Hapu rights is itself an assumed one with precedents based solely on the power taken by colonising States to dispossess Indigenous Peoples.
The obligation upon Iwi and hapu to be kaitiaki is part of the tupuna title but kaitiakitanga itself is only a part of the broader authority of rangatiratanga.

Overriding all this is the presumption that Iwi and Hapu must ‘prove’ their rights to the Government who will then define and limit them in order to ‘protect’ them, while those with “private” rights will have them acknowledged and respected.
There is no certainty for Iwi and Hapu rights, except to know that they are subordinate to those of the majority whenever such rights are perceived as a threat to the majority.
Iwi and Hapu have noted their disappointment and anger at the process, the proposals and being subordinated to the so-called “public interest”.

 Oceania: Maori hapu as a whole way of struggle: 1840s-50s before the land wars
There is some disagreement among current commentators on the contemporary organisation of Maori hapu or at least on how this organisation is to be understood (Webster 1997).' However, it is now widely accepted that hapu have survived colonisation, or rather that they exist and even thrive in contemporary Maori society.
(ii) hapu (or their equivalent in other terms such as 'family', whanau, or iwi) are also nonlocal or non-territorial descent categories, although specific lands and regions of origin are symbolically important and the primary residence of core members;
(viii) the assumption of a segmentary hierarchy obscures the fundamental structural difference between the hapu as a descent group and the whanau as a domestic group including spouses and whangai tamariki ('adopted' children) who are not necessarily members of the same hapu.

Those relationships will be built on agreed mechanisms and processes for ensuring whanau, hapu and iwi participation in relevant central and local government decision making processes, and will be tailored to the needs and capacity of each area.
The government accepts the responsibility to ensure that existing customary management or guardianship roles of whanau, hapu and iwi are able to be maintained, especially in places where whanau, hapu and iwi continue to have a strong and active ongoing association with particular foreshore and seabed areas.
It is expected that ways of building capacity for whanau, hapu and iwi, and for central and local government, will be part of those discussions.
