Maori Affairs Minister resumes duties

Mâori Affairs Minister Parekura Horomia is back at his farm near Tolaga Bay following routine hospital treatment to deal with a health complaint.

"I have been meaning to have an issue of water retention looked at for sometime and the Parliamentary recess presented me with that opportunity on Monday night. I left Wakefield Hospital early this morning and I am grateful to the staff for their good work.

"I will be attending five hui over the recess including the national hui called by Hauraki Iwi on the seabed issue. I will be back in Wellington on Monday after which I will take some time off before resuming full duties," said Parekura Horomia.

"I will not be making any further comment regarding issues to do with my health."
