She was a Member of Parliament (MP) between 1996 and 2011, and a Cabinet Minister in the New Zealand Government.

Early life

Born Georgina Manunui in 1943, she is the daughter of George Manunui of Waitahanui. She is a member of the Ngāti Tuwharetoa tribe of the central North Island and is also related to Te Arawa and Tuhoe tribes. She was born and raised at Taurewa, near Mount Tongariro, and received her secondary schooling at Turakina Maori Girls' College (1956–59) and Auckland Girls' Grammar School (1960–61).

She graduated from Victoria University of Wellington with a BA in English and an LLB, being the first Māori woman to gain a law degree and be admitted to the High Court as barrister and solicitor.<ref name="Beehive bio">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

Professional life

Before being elected to Parliament, te Heuheu practised law in Wellington and Rotorua. She was a member of the Waitangi Tribunal (1986–96).<ref name="National bio">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

Member of Parliament

Template:NZ parlbox header Template:NZ parlbox Template:NZ parlbox Template:NZ parlbox Template:NZ parlbox Template:NZ parlbox Template:NZ parlbox footer Georgina te Heuheu was first elected to Parliament in 1996.<ref name="Women in Parliament">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

She was the Minister for Courts and for Women's Affairs (1998–1999) during the Fourth National Party Government.<ref name="Te Heuheu parliamentary listing">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

Speculation about her future arose in 2004 after she criticised then leader Don Brash's Orewa Speech. Questioned some weeks later, she refused to rule out the possibility that she might switch allegiance to the new Māori Party, which had formed after the resignation of Tariana Turia.

However she remained with National for the 2005 election and served as a backbencher for the party, serving as a Spokeswoman for Broadcasting, Associate Spokeswoman for Defence, Treaty of Waitangi Issues and Māori Affairs (Māori Development).

From 19 November 2008 until the 2011 election she was the Minister for Courts, Minister of Pacific Island Affairs, Minister of Disarmament and Arms Control, and Associate Minister of Māori Affairs in the National Party Government led by John Key. Te Heuheu announced she would retire at the 2011 election.<ref name="Stuff.co.nz_4985607">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

Life after Parliament

Te Heuheu was appointed chairwoman of Māori Television in 2012 and now also sits on several Māori Trust Boards and Charity Committees including the Tuwharetoa Māori Trust Board.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> In her capacity as chairwoman she has been leading a review of Māori Television services and its operational structure to see whether better outcomes can be achieved for the station.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>

Private life

She married Timoti ("Timi") te Heuheu, brother of Sir Tumu te Heuheu, a Ngāti Tuwharetoa leader and son of Sir Hepi Te Heuheu. He died in 2012.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> They had two sons.<ref name="Te Heuheu parliamentary listing" />

Honours
