ANS: D
The Treaty of Waitangi was signed in 1840 between M?ori and the British Crown representative. The Treaty of Waitangi articulates a particular relationship between M?ori and generations of settlers who have come to New Zealand since the early 1800s. Cultural safety had the Treaty of Waitangi as its starting point, and involved recognition that power needed to be shared and racism de-institutionalised.
