The principle of equity Sample Clauses

The principle of equity. Article 3 of te Tiriti/the Treaty guarantees Māori all the rights and privileges of British citizens. It is from this guarantee that the principles of equity and equal treatment flow. These principles oblige the Crown to ‘meet a basic standard of good government’. This standard is met where government acts in accordance with its own law and ensures that the rights and privileges of Māori as citizens are protected by the law in practice.47 As such, the principle of equity is closely linked to the principle of active protection, insofar as it necessitates positive action on behalf of the Crown, not only to ensure equality of rights and privileges 45.
