Late on Friday the Waitangi Tribunal released its interim report into the proposed Regulatory Standards Bill.
It says the Crown breached te Tiriti by failing to meaningfully consult with Māori before Cabinet made decisions about the bill on the 5th of May.
And it's calling for the bill to be immediately halted.
ACT leader David Seymour whose party is behind it, said in response to the report that the Tribunal's claims were "incorrect" and that no Treaty settlements will ever be affected by the bill.
The Regulatory Standards Bill is set to pass under the National and ACT coalition agreement.
Lady Tureiti Moxon - she is a highly respected health leader who is managing Director of Te Kōhao Health and Chair of the National Urban Māori Authority.
She speaks to Susie from Rome.
