Māori MPs are members of the New Zealand Parliament who represent the interests of the Māori people. They can be elected through the Māori electoral roll or the general electoral roll. The Māori representation in Parliament is important for ensuring that Māori voices and perspectives are included in national decision-making. In New Zealand, there are dedicated Māori electorates, which allow Māori voters to choose representatives who understand their unique cultural and social issues. This system helps to promote the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi, which is a foundational document between the Māori and the British Crown.
