Te Raupatu o Tauranga Moana: Report on the Tauranga Confiscation Claims
This report concerns the raupatu (confiscation) of Māori land in the Tauranga district, following the war of 1864. The report covers 55 separate claims. The claimants represent several iwi, including Ngati Ranginui, Ngai Te Rangi, Waitaha, and the Marutuahu people. The Tribunal's inquiry was not the first but it was the fullest inquiry into the confiscation that has ever been conducted. In contrast to the royal commission of 1927, which reported on the Tauranga confiscation and concluded that Tauranga Māori had not been badly treated, the Tribunal found that they have substantial grievances.

The Preliminary Report on the Haane Manahi Victoria Cross Claim
The Haane Manahi VC claim (Wai 893) was filed with the Waitangi Tribunal in 2000 by Arapeta Tahana, the chairperson of the Te Arawa Māori Trust Board. It concerns the downgrading of a recommendation for a Victoria Cross (the highest possible Commonwealth military award for bravery) to a Distinguished Conduct Medal for an act of bravery by Lance-Sergeant Haane Manahi, in action at Takrouna (Tunisia) in 1943. Te Arawa claim that their requests to restore the original VC recommendation have not been handled adequately by the New Zealand Government and that this failure constitutes a breach of the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi. They seek recommendations that the Crown consult with Te Arawa and present a fully researched and agreed proposal to the Queen for her consideration.

Reports on the Impacts of the Crown's Settlement Policies on Te Arawa Waka and Other Tribes
The Tribunal has found that aspects of the Crown’s processes for dealing with overlapping groups, and aspects of the Te Arawa deed of settlement itself, were inconsistent with the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi. It commented that the Crown cannot continue to ‘pick favourites’ and make decisions on tribal interests in isolation, based on inadequate information. The Tribunal said it could not endorse the Te Arawa settlement in its current form. It has grave concerns regarding the potential negative impact of this settlement on overlapping iwi, and on the durability of future Central North Island settlements.
