You are looking at a list of laws that affect the Tribunal's power. The Tribunal is a group that helps make decisions about important issues. These laws are part of the Treaty of Waitangi Act 1975. The list includes many laws, such as the Affiliate Te Arawa Iwi and Hapu Claims Settlement Act 2008 and the Ahuriri Hapū Claims Settlement Act 2021. Each law has its own sections that relate to the Tribunal's power. For example, section 13(3) and (4) of the Affiliate Te Arawa Iwi and Hapu Claims Settlement Act 2008 is included in the list. The list is very long and includes many different laws. It is updated when new laws are passed that affect the Tribunal's power.
