Waikato Regional Council is at a pivotal period of change, The council has embarked on a new journey and is charting a pioneering course towards the principles of partnership and collaboration in decision making with their Treaty partners. This innovative approach requires both the council and iwi to agree on their partnering destinations and shared points of convergence along the way.  The essence of which has been captured in the Strategic direction for the Waikato Regional Council.  

The collective strength of all will enhance relationship agreements moving forward and strengthen on-going engagement with iwi within and outside of Treaty Settlement arrangements.
