The Government is set to formally apologise for the wrongs committed during the 1970s Dawn Raids.
The commemoration event is being held at the Auckland Town Hall and is being hosted by the Minister for Pacific Peoples, Aupito William Sio.
The apology will acknowledge the lasting negative impacts on the Pasifika community from the rigorous enforcement of immigration policies that led officials to conduct targeted raids on the homes of Pacific families, often early in the morning or late at night.
