2 Commencement
(1)
Part 1A comes into force—
(a)
on the day after the date on which this Act receives the Royal assent, if section 39 of Te Ture mō Te Reo Māori 2016/the Māori Language Act 2016 has commenced when this Act receives the Royal assent; or

Explanatory note
This Supplementary Order Paper amends the Māori Purposes Bill by—
replacing the commencement provision in clause 2; and
inserting new Part 1A, which contains an amendment to the Māori Television Service (Te Aratuku Whakaata Irirangi Māori) Act 2003 (the MTS Act).
The amendment set out in new Part 1A repeals provisions in section 39 of the MTS Act that require output agreements for the Māori Television Service to specify the amount of money to be set aside for the operating costs of Te Pūtahi Paoho. Te Ture mō Te Reo Māori 2016/the Māori Language Act 2016 replaces Te Pūtahi Paoho with Te Mātāwai, and provides for Te Mātāwai to receive funding directly under a purchase agreement with the Minister for Māori Development. As a result, the provisions repealed by new Part 1A will be redundant once Te Pūtahi Paoho is disestablished and its functions are taken over by Te Mātāwai.
New clause 2 prevents the amendment to section 39 of the MTS Act from commencing before Te Pūtahi Paoho is disestablished.
