Report

The Board considered this proposal report at its hui on 22 June 2023. The proposals are notified for one month so that the public can make submissions supporting or objecting to the names.

The Board considered this submissions report at its hui on 30 April 2024. Because the Board didn’t agree with the objecting submissions received for two of the three names, it requested the Minister for Land Information to make the final determination. Meyer (hill) did not receive any submissions.
