It has been said that the March united Maori and Pakeha throughout the country, and delivered a strong message to the government on the state of affairs.
In saying this, more Maori land was taken for a rubbish tip shortly after the petition was handed over - indicating that it may not have been so effective in government.
I believe though, that the effect for Maori relations was immense. According to Michael King, it was the first time that the media really showed Maori as individuals, and also gave serious thought to their land claims. Pakeha were very much involved (I think the petition had 40,000 signatures) - which surely indicates increased interest in Maori affairs - and in cooperation between the two groups.
