Coming up on Te Karere... This woman is looking for answers after she was asked this question from an Immigration NZ staff member. Should Maori really be fearful of the new Pakeha Party? This kiwi chick may hold the key to its species survival. Due to the live nature of Te Karere, some segments will not be subtitled. Tena koutou katoa, and welcome to Te Karere. A NZ citizen who lives in Canada is questioning the cultural safety of Immigration NZ after an official made off colour remarks about her moko kauae. Tia Taurere-Clearsky moko kauae d clearly reflects her Maori ident She's used to strange looks in foreign places, but not from immigration officials from her country of origin. She's talking about a female officer from an Auckland branch of Immigration NZ, Tia was there yesterday sorting out her child's visiting visa, and was suddenly taken aback over remarks about her chin. And she's supported by this moko artist. Tia's message to Immigration NZ. But regardless, she's keeping her chin up. Immigration NZ is investigating Tia's claims. Tina Wickliffe, Te Karere. And just before we went to air we received a statement from Immigration NZ. They apologise to Ms Taurere-Clearsky for any offence caused by the officer's behaviour. The officer will not be working on the public counter at the Henderson area office. The Opotiki couple injured in a home invasion are due to be discharged from Whakatane Hospital. Anne and Alan Looney were attacked at their rural home before the offender fled and started a police chase that end Caleb Dean Henry was shot dead by police after a 350km chase ended in a shootout in Auckland. We cross live to our reporter in Rotorua, Hinerangi Goodman, who has more. What's the reaction been by the community in Opotiki? We're unable to provide subtitles. Hinerangi Goodman, thank you for your report. We now cross over to Maori Party's Te Ururoa Flavell. Tena koe, Te Ururoa. A police investigation into the shooting of 20-year-old Caleb Henry; the chase started in Waiotahe and ended on the Auckland Motorway your thoughts? We're unable to provide subtitles. Te Ururoa Flavell, thank you for joining us. Ngati Toa and the Department of Conservation have released the world's rarest kiwi on Mana Island to ensure its species survives. The Rowi chick was born in the Marlborough Sounds and could help save our most endangered kiwi species from extinction. Peata Melbourne has more. A Rowi, the first of this Kiwi species to be born in captivity. This bird has a lineage that extends from the gods. A lineage that not only incorporates these birds, but us as well. It's a rare species of Kiwi, and has been released by DOC and Ngati Toa in to the wild on Mana Island. There are less than 300 of these birds alive at the moment. The species was discovered on the West Coast in 2003. Back then there were as little as 200. And they're not the most fertile of birds. So a mating pair was taken into captivity with the hope they would breed. And it wasn't a cheap affair, costing around $75,000 a year to fund. Not including the pest control required. But that hasn't stopped these guardians. That's awesome because the goal and dream is for these kiwi to strengthen and thrive on this island, and mate with other kiwi birds here. Mana Island will also be gifted back to the Ngati Toa tribe as part of their settlement next year allowing them greater management over the Kiwi's survival. Peata Melbourne, Te Karere. After the break, why is this new Pakeha Party upsetting some Maori? Recently, a Facebook page was launched called the Pakeha Party, and now the page administrators are considering moving on to bigger things by starting their own political party. David Ruck, the page's creator says it's not racist, but he would like Pakeha to receive the same privileges that Maori receive. We're unable to provide subtitles. Kereama Wright, Te Karere. The remaining Maori members of the Glenn Inquiry think tank are staying with the independent inquiry saying that the kaupapa is more important than the sideshow. However, there are two undecided members Ngati Awa's Te Kani Kingi and Ngati Tahinga's Dr Denise Wilson who would like more information before making a final decision. How could we ever forget these little faces? Taken far too soon as a result of abuse. Ngati Kahungunu and Rangitane's former Family Commissioner Kim Workman is sticking with the Glenn Inquiry think tank. These two have already left the think tank. But those Maori left in the inquiry who have confirmed they will be staying are Dr Lance O'Sullivan, Kim Workman, Marama Davidson and Bentham Ohia. There are only two Maori undecided at the moment - Ngati Awa's Dr Te Kani Kingi and Ngati Tahinga's Dr Denise Wilson. I believe in it. That's what's important to me because this is a big problem in Maoridom. Dr King would like to meet with the remaining members to discuss the issues at hand. I agree with the other Maori members who do not want to stay with the group. It's up to them and I support their decision. Kim Workman and Denius Henare will take the case before the select committee this week for consideration. Roihana Nuri, Te Karere. Diabetes type 2 has long been a problem among Maori, and today, with Maori members of Christchurch's community fighting this illness. She has won an Emmy for his work in the past. An issue that has long affected Maori, but diabetes type two is still a big concern. Poverty is a big cause of this illness. Another problem is not being informed. So a University of Canterbury student has made a dvd warning people of the dangers of diabetes. Alison Farmer has won an Emmy for her work as a director, and her skills in research have helped, along with the help of health workers and Maori communities. Mark Solomon and Maori families have jumped on in a bid to fight diabetes type two. Research suggests that Maori are in the dark because resources don't cater to Maori principles. That's why this documentary was made. The government needs to take a look at the cause - poverty. Fix that first. The outcomes of this doco will be analysed in January 2014 to show whether the dvd has had an effect. Peata Melbourne, Te Karere.
