Council meeting is the first thing. The visitors come to ask
permission. Council people ask lots of questions and talk up
strong for the community. Council says OK for the research.
They tell the visitors who they should go and talk to: some
families, some outstations. The visitors go where Council says.
When the visitors talk to families they show respect and they
listen. They use a tape recorder. When they have visited
everybody they go back again and give a copy of the tape
back to the family. This is a good time for them to check if it
is OK. This is a good time for them to check if it is OK to use
everything on the tape or if something is private.
