The Mana Party will build homes and offer financial support to get more Maori into home ownership, under a new policy to be launched tomorrow.
A spokesman for leader Hone Harawira said the policy would be specific to the 41 per cent of Maori who have never owned a home.
The spokesman said the party opposed Housing New Zealand's housing renewal programme, which has seen state houses demolished and tenants evicted in Auckland, Napier and Lower Hutt in a bid to create more sustainable, mixed communities of social and private housing.
The policy will be launched in Farmer Cres, Pomare, Lower Hutt where tenants of demolished state houses protested in 2011.
Mr Harawira was arrested during a protest against the demolition of Housing NZ homes in Glen Innes, Auckland.
