​David Reeves, LIAC Chair says, 
Nga Upoko Tukutuku – Māori Subject Headings have been on the Commission's radar for some time, but the matter has been brought into sharper focus by two recent important moves by the Government. The announcement that New Zealand history is to be taught in all schools as a core part of the curriculum significantly raises the opportunity, if not the necessity, to make collections discover-able in a variety of ways, including being framed from Te Ao Māori perspectives. The Government response to the WAI262 claim also raises the importance of the structure and accessibility of information sources and we believe that holders of cultural heritage collections, and those in the wider library and information field, can contribute very constructively from the outset of this work. As a joint project undertaken over the last 15 years or so, we applaud the collaborative efforts of LIANZA, Te Rōpū Whakahau and the National Library of New Zealand. 
Now is the time to ​get some professional development in this area!
