   ...[44] On 19 March 2020, Perjuli received formal advice from Ngāti Tamainupō totally opposing the development and requiring preservation of all pits. Mr Glover wrote back on 23 March 2020 querying the new identity for Ngāti Tamainupō and requesting clarification. He gave no indication that the application for earthworks had been made. Again, we conclude that this failure by Mr Glover to advise Ms Huirama of the earthworks consent was deliberate. Conclusions on the factual...

There was clear evidence that the water flows (albeit at a very slow rate). I take the matter of breach of Rule 18.5.2.1 no furthe...
