Te Reo Māori
Tō motika kia kōrero Māori ai i ngā kōti
Ka āhei au ki te kōrero Māori i roto i te kōti?
Te Ture mō Te Reo Māori 2016, wehenga 7
Āe. Ka āhei koe ki te kōrero Māori i ngā kōti katoa o Aotearoa, tae atu ki te Kōti Matua, te Kōti ā-Rohe, te Kōti ā-Whānau, te Kōti Taiohi me te Kōti Whenua Māori i raro i te mana o te Ture mō Te Reo Māori.
Kei a koe tēnei motika ahakoa ko te reo Pākehā, reo kē atu rānei, tō reo matua.
E āhei ana koe ki te kōrero i te reo Māori i ētahi taraipiunara hoki, pērā i te Taraipiunara o Waitangi, i te Taraipiunara Rīhi, i te Rōpū Whakawawao Tautohe anō hoki.
Ko wai rā e āhei ana ki te kōrero Māori i roto i te kōti?
Te Ture mō Te Reo Māori 2016, wehenga 7(1)
Koinei ngā tāngata e āhei ana ki te kōrero Māori i roto i te kōti, i te taraipiunara rānei:
- ngā tāngata kei mua i te aroaro o te kōti (ko te tāngata nāna te kēhi i kawe me te tāngata e karo ana)
- ngā kaikōrero
- ngā āpiha whakahaere (arā, ko ngā kaiwhakawā) me ngā mema o te taraipiunara
- ngā rōia, ngā tāngata rānei e tū ana hei māngai mō ngā taha o te kēhi, me
- ētahi atu anō hoki mēnā ka whakaaetia e te āpiha whakahaere.
Ka āhei au ki te tono kia whakahaeretia te katoa o te whakawā i roto i te reo Māori?
Te Ture mō Te Reo Māori 2016, wehenga 7(2)
Kāo, kāore i a koe te mana hei tono i ērā atu tāngata kia kōrero Māori, kia whakahoki reo Māori atu rānei ki a koe. Heoi anō, ki te hiahia koe, ka whakamāoritia ngā pātai me ngā whakautu ki a koe.
Me pēhea te hunga kore mōhio e mārama ai ki āku kōrero?
Te Ture mō Te Reo Māori 2016, wehenga 7(3)
Ka kōrero Māori ana koe, ka whakapākehātia āu kupu e tētahi kaiwhakapākehā.
Kia mōhio ai: Ka āhei ērā atu tāngata i te kōti ki te kōrero Pākehā ki te hiahia rātou.
Mā wai te kaiwhakawhiti reo ā-waha e whakarite?
Te Ture mō Te Reo Māori 2016, wehenga 7(3), 40, Āpitihanga 6
Mā te kōti, mā te taraipiunara rānei te kaiwhakawhiti reo ā-waha (arā, te kaiwhakamāori/kaiwhakapākehā) e whakarite māu.
Mā ngā kaiwhakawhiti reo ā-waha matatau anake tēnei mahi. Me whai rātou i te tiwhikete whakamāori nā Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Māori i hoatu.
Mā wai te kaiwhakawhiti reo ā-waha e utu?
Te Ture mō Te Reo Māori 2016, wehenga 7(3)
Mā te kōti, mā te taraipiunara te kaiwhakawhiti reo ā-waha e utu. Ehara māu e utu.
Me pēhea e whakamōhio atu ki te kōti mō tōku hiahia ki te kōrero Māori?
Criminal Procedure Rules 2012, rule 1.9 District Court Rules 2014, rule 1.15 Family Court Rules 2002, rule 131 High Court Rules 2016, rule 1.11
Mehemea kei tētahi taha koe o te kēhi taihara, o te kēhi hiwhiri rānei i te Kōti Matua, i te Kōti ā-Rohe, i te Kōti ā-Whānau rānei, me whakakī koe i te pepa: “Notice of Intention to Speak Māori”. Kei ngā Whare Ture Hapori ēnei pepa, kua whakairia hoki ki te paetukutuku o te Manatū Ture, www.justice.govt.nz.
Ā te wā e whakakī ai koe i te pepa nei, me tuhi te ingoa o tō iwi kia whakaritea tētahi kaiwhakawhiti reo ā-waha tika.
Kātahi me hari, me tuku rānei e koe ki te kōti, ki te taraipiunara rānei e tū ai koe. Me tika hoki te wā e tukuna ai i mua i tō tū ki te kōti (kia 10 ngā rā i mua i te wā e tū ai koe). Kia kitea ai te wāhi noho o tō kōti, tirohia ngā whārangi kikorangi o te pukapuka nama waea. Kimihia tēnei: “Justice, Ministry of”. Me tiro rānei e koe te paetukutuku o te Manatū Ture, www.justice.govt.nz.
Me hoatu hoki e koe tētahi kape o te pepa ki te tāngata, ki ngā tāngata rānei kei tērā atu taha o te kēhi.
Ki te tū koe hei kaikōrero, me whakamōhio atu ki te tāngata nāna koe i karanga mai hei kaikōrero. Whakamōhio atu ki a ia he hiahia nōu ki te kōrero i te reo Māori, kātahi ka riro māna e whakamōhio atu ki te kōti, ki tērā atu taha o te kēhi hoki.
Tērā pea, kei ētahi atu kōti me ētahi atu taraipiunara he ture, he mahi rerekē hei whai māu ina hiahia koe ki te kōrero i te reo Māori.
Kia mōhio ai: Mēnā kāore anō koe kia tuku i ngā pepa i te wā tika, ka taea tonu pea e koe te kōrero Māori – engari me tatari pea koe, i a te kōti e whakarite ana i te kaiwhakawhiti reo ā-waha.
