William Hobson helped by proposing the treaty to the Maori leaders. He also helped by making peace by not killing any Maori villager
In August 1839 the British Government sent Captain William Hobson out to New Zealand aboard "The Herald", as British Consul, with orders to a part of New Zealand and place it under British rule. His mission was to organize a treaty and get the Maori chiefs to accept British sovereignty over all, or at least over parts of the country. The British Government was anxious to establish sovereignty in order to stabilize the degrading situation in New Zealand. William Hobson (1793-1842) was a British naval commander and governor of New Zealand. He negotiated the Treaty of Waitangi with the Maori chiefs, which granted England sovereignty over New Zealand.
