He pūtahi kāwanatanga ngā hōhipera nui o Aotearoa, arā, kāhore he utu mō ngā mate whawhati tata me ngā mate whatutoto. He hōhipera tūmataiti anō, engari mō ngā mate noa, ka mutu, me utu. Kei ngā tāone nunui ngā hōhipera matua. Ko ngā hōhipera kei ngā tāone iti kei te tuwhera tonu, ko ā rātou ratonga, mō te whakawhānau tamariki me te tiaki i ngā koroua me ngā kuia anake. Mēnā he inihua hauora tā te tangata, ka taea e ia ngā ratonga hauora mā roto i ngā hōhipera tūmataiti.
