Topic: Te Tatau o Te Arawa appointment
Inquiry
Rotorua Daily Post asked for comment from Mayor Steve Chadwick regarding Ken Kennedy joining the Te Tatau o Te Arawa board
Response
From Mayor Steve Chadwick:
We were very sad to lose Fred Whata but I welcome Ken Kennedy's appointment through the Te Arawa koeke.
He'll bring additional skills, connections and wisdom on kawa and tikanga, which is very important.
It ensures Te Tatau o Te Arawa has that complete diversity of skills and interweaving of strengths they need to be able to provide a well-rounded perspective that I believe is proving very valuable to council and to Rotorua."
