Iwi unhappy with ocean sanctuary

The New Zealand government is aiming to establish a ocean sanctuary around the kermadec.
The sanctuary will contain 6 million birds of various species, 35 species of whale and dolphins, three species of turtle and 150 species of fish. Chairperson jamie Tuuta said that the government has ignored the impact the sanctuary would have on iwi fishing interests. 

Also the sanctuary would be off limits to commercial fishing and aquaculture, recreational fishing and fishing related tourism. Let me know what you think of this?
