Pāwhiritia ki te kōpere ''Whai muri' i runga ake kia kite i te katoa o ngā hīti e iwa o te Tiriti o Waitangi

Whakatopa mai kia pānui i ngā taipitopito o te putanga tuatahi o te Tiriti o Waitangi, i waitohua e ngā rangatira 43 ki Waitangi, ki te Pēwhairangi, i te 6 o Pēpuere 1840. E ai ki te mihinare, a William Colenso, '`kāore i nui rawa ngā tino rangatira' i waitohu ki Waitangi. Heoi anō, ki Rūtene-Kāwana William Hobson ko tēnei waitohu tuatahi te tiriti 'tūturu'. Ko ngā waitohu i muri iho i whakamana i tēnei waitohutanga. I waitohua tēnei hīti o te tiriti ki ētahi atu wāhi e ono, ā, i te mutunga neke atu i te 213 ngā waitohu i kohikohia ki runga.

Pānuitia he kōrero anō mō ngā tāngata i waitohu i tēnei hīti.
