The National Māori Flag
The Origins of the Flag
In 1989 the go
vernmen
t ap
proved
an initial $20 m
illion dollars tow
ards co
mmem
orating th
e se
squice
nten
ary of the sign
ing of the Treaty of W
aitang
i. In
respo
nse a
coalition of M
aori ind
epen
den
ce organisations, c
ollectively kn
own as Te Kotah
itanga
, ag
reed
to se
ek ‘creative way
s’ to inform
Mao
ri about Treaty breac
hes. T
e Kaw
ariki, an
orga
nisation based
in the far no
rth, came up
with the idea
of runn
ing a national M
aori flag co
mpe
tition - with th
e winning des
ign read
y in tim
e for the 19
90
commem
orations. T
heir idea
arose from a trip a group of M
aori activists had
mad
e to Australia som
e ye
ars ea
rlier. W
hile
in th
e co
untry to sup
port Aboriginal opp
osition
to the 19
82 Com
monwea
lth Gam
es in Brisb
ane, they
visited
Aboriginal activists in Red
fern, Syd
ney. They
were im
pres
sed by th
e prom
inen
t display
of th
e Aboriginal flag
throug
hou
t th
e big Aboriginal com
mun
ity. Te Kotah
itan
ga end
orse
d the flag
com
petition idea
and
Te Kaw
ariki subse
quen
tly pu
blic
ised
it. Rather tha
n ad
vertising in the
mainstrea
m m
edia, Te Kaw
ariki used
loc
al iw
i radio and
the Black
Pow
er new
spap
er. T
he latter was use
d bec
ause it offe
red free ad
vertising, but also bec
ause it was a
Mao
ri organisation, and
had
a national a
nd Australian circulation. The des
igns tha
t came in were discu
ssed
by Te Kaw
ariki but it was agree
d tha
t no
ne of th
em reflected
wha
t they
were look
ing for. A collective of M
aori wom
en artists was asked
for inp
ut. T
hree of them
, Lind
a Munn, H
iraina M
arsd
en and
Jan D
obson Smith, subse
quen
tly
came up
with th
e winning
des
ign. It was show
n at hui in th
e no
rth bef
ore being
hand sew
n by Jan D
obson read
y for its launch
in 1990. P
osters were printed with an
explan
ation of the mea
ning
of th
e flag
, written
by W
alter Erstich
. The flag
was lau
nche
d shortly bef
ore W
aitang
i Day
1990 during a hiko
i from
Te Reren
ga W
airua (Cap
e Reing
a) to Waitangi.
The National Māori flag
In Jan
uary 2009 Te Ata Tino Toa
asked
Mao
ri Party co-lead
er Pita Sha
rples to sup
port its app
lication to Transit to fly th
e flag
on th
e Harbou
r Bridge
. By this tim
e th
e Mao
ri Party was a coalition partner in th
e National-led governm
ent, and
Sharples
was the Minister of M
aori Affairs. H
e ad
vise
d the med
ia tha
t he would raise
the issue
with ministers but there was initial sce
pticism tha
t th
e idea
would gain sufficient sup
port. T
his rap
idly chan
ged after Prime Minister Joh
n Key
advised that he had
no
particular objection to a M
aori flag being flown from
the bridge
, if M
aori could agree
on a flag
. In ap
prec
iation
of his stance Te Ata Tino Toa
sen
t th
e Prim
e Minister a
tino ran
gatiratang
a t-sh
irt ad
dressed
to Hone Kei, Pirimia. O
ver July and Aug
ust 2009, 21 pu
blic
hui were held nationw
ide, and
written
and
online submissions were invited
from
Mao
ri and
oth
er interes
ted N
ew Zea
land
ers. Fou
r flag
s of national significance
were iden
tified
for con
sideration as the pref
erred national Mao
ri flag. Over 12
00
submission
s were rece
ived
, with 79% of submitters iden
tifying th
emse
lves
as Mao
ri. O
f the total submission
s, 80.1% selec
ted the Mao
ri (Tino Ranga
tiratang
a) flag as the
pref
erred national Mao
ri flag. The
fee
dbac
k rece
ived
also indicated
tha
t it should be flow
n on
Waitangi Day
and
oth
er significa
nt occasions. On W
aitang
i Day
2010
the
na
tional M
aori flag flew
over th
e Auc
klan
d H
arbou
r Bridge
for the first time. It also flew at other nationa
lly significa
nt sites
including Pa
rliamen
t, the Bee
hive, th
e National War M
emorial, Te Pa
pa, th
e National Library of New
Zea
land
, and a num
ber of go
vernmen
t buildings. B
ut there was far from universal sup
port for the flag
; some
considered
it too divisive and/ or prefe
rred
to fly the United Tribes
flag. It did not fly at Waitang
i Treaty Grounds, and
Nga
i Tah
u an
d Te Arawa did not sup
port it being
flow
n at official co
mmem
orations in th
eir area
.
