Now is time to change Te Papa's Treaty of Waitangi display, the museum's co-leaders say.

It comes after the museum left a defaced version of the Treaty of Waitangi on display over summer to enable "valuable conversations" about te Tiriti o Waitangi

...

Te Papa said it would consult with te Tiriti experts, iwi and communities for the permanent exhibition

...

The removed panel will be stored by the museum, and while no decision has been made about its future, Johnston said it was part of the exhibition's history and the story of te Tiriti o Waitangi.

It's a crapshoot sometimes, I've been absolutely grilled when turning up at a building, and other places nobody cares.

Heh in the context of this conversation I thought you were casually admitting to being a burglar for a second then... why do you turn up at buildings, is it a work thing?

Yes, I'm a tradie, and building occupants don't always know we're coming.

Makes sense. Back when I worked in a workplace we were never told about stuff like that. Security knew though.
