Kōrero whakamārama

Tauākī kaupapahere whānui

Ko te aronga o tēnei Pire ko te whakatū i tētahi hararei tūmatanui ā-tau hei whakanui i a Matariki. Ka whakaritea e tēnei Pire ngā rā mō te hararei tūmatanui o Matariki atu i te 2022 ki te 2052 me te whakatau i ngā rā ki tua mō te hararei tūmatanui o Matariki.

I te whakatūnga o te hararei tūmatanui o Matariki ka whakaatatia te ngākau pono o te Kāwanatanga ki te aro atu me te whakanui i tētahi āhuatanga whakahirahira o te ao Māori. Kāore tētahi o ngā hararei tūmatanui 11 o Aotearoa o tēnei wā e āta whai whakaaro ki te ao Māori.

I kopoua te Rōpū Arataki o Matariki (te Rōpū) e te Rūnanga Kāwanatanga ki te tāpae kōrero ārahi mō te wā me te āhua o te whakanui i te hararei tūmatanui o Matariki i runga i te mau tonu ki te mana o te mātauranga Māori kei te tūāpapa o Matariki. Ko te hunga o te Rōpū he mātanga e mōhiotia ana mō te hōhonu o ō rātou mātauranga me tō rātou mārama anō ki te ao Māori me ngā mātauranga e pā ana ki a Matariki me te maramataka Māori. Hei tā te Rōpū ko ngā mahi whakanui i te hararei tūmatanui o Matariki me arotahi ki te mahara ake ki te hunga mate, ki te whakanui i tēnei wā me te titiro whakamua anō ki ngā rā ki tua.

Kua arahina e te whakataukī Matariki hunga nui ngā whakatau mō te wā e whakanuia ai te hararei tūmatanui o Mātariki. Ko tā te Pire he āta whakarite kia taka te hararei mō ngā tau 30 kei te tū mai ki te Rāmere e tūtata ana ki te mutunga wiki tata katoa ki te wā o te marama ki a Tangaroa (te wā o te maramataka e rewa ake ai te marama hauwhā whakamutunga) i te Pipiri (te wā o te maramataka Māori te tikanga ka taka i waenga o Pipiri me Hōngongoi). Ko te tikanga o tēnei kua noho mai he mutunga wiki roa i te hararei tūmatanui o Matariki e wātea ai te tangata ki te haere ka noho tahi ai ki te whānau me ngā hoa.

E whakaarotia kia taimau te whakanuia o te hararei tūmatanui o Matariki. Kei roto anō i te Pire te mana e taea tūturuhia ai e te Kāwana-Tianara (i runga i te tūtohunga a te Minita mō te Toi, te Ahurea, te Tuku Ihotanga) te whakarite ngā rā ki tua mō te hararei tūmatanui o Matariki i raro i te Whakahau ā-Kaunihera.

Tauākī whākinga tari

E whakahaungia ana a Ministry of Business, Innovation, and Employment kia whakarite tauākī whākitanga hei āwhina i te mātaitanga o te Pire nei.

Explanatory note

General policy statement

The purpose of this Bill is to establish an annual public holiday to acknowledge Matariki. This Bill sets the dates for the Matariki public holiday from 2022 to 2052 and provides for future dates for the Matariki public holiday.

Establishing the Matariki public holiday reflects the Government’s commitment to recognising and celebrating an important aspect of te ao Māori. None of Aotearoa/New Zealand’s existing 11 public holidays explicitly recognise te ao Māori.

The Matariki Advisory Group (the Group) was appointed by Cabinet to provide advice on when and how the Matariki public holiday should be celebrated in a way that maintains the integrity of the Māori body of knowledge underpinning Matariki. The Group consisted of recognised experts who have deep knowledge and understanding of both te ao Māori and the body of knowledge associated with Matariki and the Māori lunar calendar. The Group advised that celebrations of the Matariki public holiday should focus on remembering those who have passed, celebrating the present, and looking forward to the future.

The whakataukī Matariki hunga nui (Matariki brings us together) has guided the decision-making for when the Matariki public holiday is celebrated. The Bill ensures that for the next 30 years the holiday will fall on the Friday adjacent to the weekend closest to the Tangaroa lunar phase (the point in the lunar month where the last quarter moon rises) of Pipiri (the Māori calendar period typically falling between June and July). This means the Matariki public holiday will create a long weekend and give people the chance to travel and spend time with whānau and friends.

The Matariki public holiday is intended to be an enduring celebration. The Bill includes an empowering provision to ensure that the Governor-General (on the recommendation of the Minister who is responsible for the administration of the Bill) can set the future dates for the Matariki public holiday by Order in Council.

Departmental disclosure statement

The Ministry of Business, Innovation, and Employment is required to prepare a disclosure statement to assist with the scrutiny of this Bill.

3 Te tikanga me te hiranga o Matariki ki a ngāi Māori

E whai ake nei te whakamārama a te Rōpū Arataki o Matariki (i whakatūria e te Kāwanatanga) mō te tikanga me te hiranga o Matariki ki a ngāi Māori:

Mānawa maiea te putanga o Matariki

Mānawa maiea te ariki o te rangi

Mānawa maiea te mātahi o te tau

Ko Matariki te ingoa Māori o Pleiades, tētahi kāhui whetū tīrepa o roto i te kāhui whetū o Taurus. Ki ētahi Māori tokomaha tonu, ko te whakakau ake o Matariki ki te rāwhiti i te ata iti o te rangi takurua, i ngā pō Tangaroa o te marama o Pipiri, te tohu o te Tau Hou Māori (e mōhiotia ana anō ko te mātahi o te tau). I whakarewahia e te aranga o Matariki te hui whakanui hiranga katoa o te maramataka Māori, e haere tonu ana hoki te whakanuia o tōna aranga ake i ēnei rā ki te kawa me te tikanga. E tohu ana a Matariki i te wā o te hokinga mahara, te whakamaharatanga, te wā whakanui, te mahi āhuareka, me te arotahi ki ngā painga ka kawea mai e te tau hou. He wāhanga a Matariki nō te pūnaha maramataka taiao e uru atu ai te tūnga mai o te rā, te rewanga ā-maru o ngā whetū, te kaupeka marama, me ngā tohu ā-taiao kei tēnā me tēnā rohe. Katoa ngā āhuatanga nei ka ārahi i ngā ōwehenga a ngāi Māori mō te taka o te wā e ākina ana e te taiao.

Ko ētahi iwi ka whakamahi i te rewanga ā-maru o ētahi atu whetū hei tohu mō te Tau Hou Māori/Mātahi o te Tau, ina koa te whetū o Puanga (Rigel). He rerekē anō ngā tohu a ētahi atu iwi me ētahi atu rohe mō āhea, me pēhea hoki e arohia ai, e whakanuia ai te Tau Hou Māori.

Ka arahina a Matariki e ētahi mātāpono matua e 3 e whai iho nei:

  • te whakamaharatanga: te whakahōnore i te hunga kua mate mai i te aranga ake o Matariki i te tau o mua atu:

  • te whakanui i tēnei wā: te huihui tahi ki te whānau me ngā hoa:

  • te titiro ki tua: te titiro whakamua ki ngā painga ka kawea mai e te tau hou.

Ko te uara matua hoki kei te tūāpapa o Matariki, hiranga katoa ko te—

  • aroha:

  • whakamaharatanga:

  • kotahitanga:

  • manaakitanga:

  • tohatoha:

  • mana taiao:

  • hākari:

  • wānanga:

  • noho tahi:

  • atawhaitanga:

  • whakanui:

  • tuakiritanga.

Ko Matariki te wā e huihui ai, e whakamihia ai te hunga mate, e whakanuia ai tēnei wā nei, e whakariteritea ai ngā rā ki tua. Ko Matariki te whetū o te Tau Hou Māori.

Part 1 Preliminary provisions

3 Meaning and significance of Matariki to Māori

The Matariki Advisory Group (established by the Government) has explained the meaning and significance of Matariki to Māori as follows:

Mānawa maiea te putanga o Matariki

Mānawa maiea te ariki o te rangi

Mānawa maiea te mātahi o te tau

Welcome the rising of Matariki

Welcome the rising of the lord of the sky

Welcome the New Year

Matariki is the Māori name for Pleiades, an open star cluster within the constellation of Taurus. For many Māori, the eastern pre-dawn appearance of Matariki in the winter sky, during the last quarter of the lunar month of Pipiri, marks the beginning of the Māori New Year (also known as te mātahi o te tau). The rising of Matariki launched the most significant celebration in the traditional Māori calendar, and its appearance continues to be honoured today with ritual and ceremony. Matariki marks a period of reflection and remembrance, celebration and festivities, and focus on the promise of a new season. Matariki is part of an environmental calendar system that includes the position of the sun, heliacal rising of stars, lunar phases, and regional ecological events. All of these factors inform a Māori environmental-driven division of time.

Some tribal groups use the heliacal rising of other stars as their marker of the Māori New Year, in particular the star Puanga (Rigel). Other tribal groups and regions also have variations regarding when and how the Māori New Year is observed and celebrated.

Matariki is guided by the following 3 major principles:

  • remembrance: honouring those who have died since the last rising of Matariki:

  • celebrating the present: gathering together with family and friends:

  • looking to the future: looking forward to the promise of a new year.

Matariki is also underpinned by key values, most significantly—

  • aroha—love and respect for one another:

  • whakamaharatanga—remembrance:

  • kotahitanga—unity:

  • manaakitanga—caring:

  • tohatoha—sharing:

  • mana taiao—environmental awareness:

  • hākari—feasting:

  • wānanga—discussion:

  • noho tahi—coming together:

  • atawhaitanga—kindness:

  • whakanui—celebrations:

  • tuakiritanga—identity.

Matariki is a time to gather, to acknowledge those who have passed, to celebrate the present, and to plan for the future. Matariki is the star of the Māori New Year.
