Rā mai, rā atu ka whakapau kaha a Āpirana Ngata ki te mairanga i te ao Māori ki waenganui i te Māori me te Pākehā. Kei konei ia kei te hui a te Rōpū Poronīhia i te tau 1947, e 50 tau mai i tōna tūhonotanga ki te rōpū. I te tau 1920 ka tāpaea ia hei mema tūturu mō te rōpū. I ngā tekau tau 1940 he kaituhi matua ia ki te hautaka, ā, ko ia te perehitini mai i te tau 1938 ki tōna matenga i te tau 1950. Nā tōna mana i roto i te whare miere ka riro mai he pūtea i te rōpū hei whakaputa i āna tuhinga. Mai i te tau 1958 ko tana tama ko Wiremu te kanohi Māori ki te uepū o te rōpū.
