The Treaty of Waitangi enabled British settlement on a bigger scale. For Maori it intially offered security as they had concerns over the colonisation of NZ by the French & the behaviour of some early British settlers. Maori operated under the assumption that they would retain control of their lands and receive protection from the British. The British and subsequent settlers took the Treaty (which had two ambiguous versions) to mean that they were now in control of NZ.

The Waitangi Tribunal is significant because it investigates Maori claims of the Treaty of Waitangi breaches made by the Crown. The tribunal also makes recommendations on these claims. While the permanent commission of inquiry deals with claims made from 1840 onward, it has made binding rulings on events before 1840.

The Waitangi Tribunal, established in 1975, continued its role in 2004 as a body that investigates and makes recommendations on claims brought by Māori regarding breaches of the Treaty of Waitangi. Its purpose was to address historical injustices and facilitate the resolution of grievances related to land, resources, and cultural rights. In 2004, the Tribunal aimed to promote healing and reconciliation between Māori and the Crown, contributing to a fairer interpretation and implementation of the Treaty. The Tribunal's findings are intended to inform government policies and decisions affecting Māori communities.
