Stewart Bull
Stewart has represented Ōraka-Aparima on Te Rūnanga o Ngāi Tahu since its inception. Prior to settlement he spent time with the negotiating teams advising on mahinga kai.
Stewart is committed to ensuring that consultation and collaboration with whānau is a priority of Te Rūnanga. Interwoven with this is a duty to ensure that the collective interests of Ngāi Tahu iwi receive maximum benefit from the returns produced by Te Rūnanga.
He believes that Te Rūnanga must operate in an efficient manner to protect the rights and privileges of Ngāi Tāhu whānui, be that from a financial, political, educational, health or natural resources perspective.
