The National Iwi Chairs forum, representing over 80 tribal leaders, urged King Charles III to prevent the New Zealand government from disrespecting the Treaty of Waitangi.
Labour MP Willie Jackson described the situation as 'serious', stating that 'Maori under attack almost weekly from this government' demonstrates a dire need for intervention.
Te Pati Maori co-leader Debbie Ngarewa-Packer emphasized the gravity of the letter to King Charles, saying it compromises the integrity of the crown.
The rightwing coalition government's proposals have triggered unprecedented protests over Maori rights and have drawn harsh criticism from the Waitangi Tribunal.
