The MOC, based at Police National Headquarters in Wellington, is providing logistical, resource and communication support to all districts along the hīkoi route.
Major Operations Director Superintendent Kelly Ryan says Police have been engaged with hīkoi organisers for many weeks.
“Our discussions with organisers to date have been positive and we expect the hīkoi to be conducted in a peaceful and lawful manner,” she says.
The hīkoi is expected to leave Northland today (Monday 11 November) and travel to Wellington, arriving at Parliament between Monday 18 and Tuesday 19 November.
“We’ve planned for large numbers to join the hīkoi, with disruption likely to some roads, including highways and main streets along the route,” Superintendent Ryan says.
“The MOC will support our frontline, district-based staff with the management of people, vehicles and activities, while also maintaining central oversight.
“We will continue to co-ordinate with iwi leaders and our partners across government to ensure public safety and minimal disruption to people going about their daily routine.
“We’re also well connected with NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi and local councils to ensure road users have up-to-date information and can plan accordingly.
“The MOC will remain in place while the hīkoi is in Wellington and as participants make their way back home safely.”

Book overview
Entanglement is a contemporary novel that inhabits the world of international relations, politics and diplomacy.
It takes the reader behind the scenes, proving insights to the realities of ministers, bureaucrats and diplomats in action. In this unashamedly old-fashioned, fast-paced romp, we find cynicism, naivete, political and personal ambition, utter self-interest, sexism, prejudice, greed and ruthlessness. As well, sometimes, genuine commitment to the greater good, kindness and a wholesome consideration of others.
The novel is set in Wellington, New Zealand; the Philippines; and Canberra, Australia. The main plot revolves around a kidnaping that occurs in the margins of an international conference, and the dramatic part of the story takes place in the hurly-burly of Mindanao, in the southern Philippines.
The characters are kept alive in a sea of tongue-in-cheek, observational and at times, dark humor. Personal and official relationships are complicated, and often indecipherable.
Whether it be the organization required to bring world leaders to an international meeting; delivering official development assistance to plantation forestry, where divergent interests and complex politics abound; or securing the release of hostages from the grasp of kidnappers, the main characters are connected in a tangle of opposing forces and motivations.
