58U: Relationship with iwi participation legislation

You could also call this:

“This part explains how the special agreement with Māori groups works alongside other laws about Māori participation.”

A Mana Whakahono a Rohe is a type of agreement. It doesn’t change or limit any important parts of iwi participation laws or agreements made under those laws. This means that if there are other laws or agreements about how iwi (Māori tribes) can take part in decisions, the Mana Whakahono a Rohe won’t interfere with those. You can think of it as an additional agreement that works alongside other existing arrangements for iwi participation.
