Stuff is hardly balanced in these matters.  Part of them accepting any support funds from the Government was a requirement to embrace the principals of the Treaty and so they would be unlikely to speak out against This document.

However as a "discussion" document there are several things that have already been implemented or about to be implemented.

 dual governance has been ruled out apparently - conveniently not mentioned above. and as I mentioned earlier, there are good reasons to implement, or at least consider, some of the ideas...

Why would you think that the results of what was essentially a spitballing session, is going to be implemented in its entirety?

It's just fear mongering - but feel free to provide a link to a more balanced analysis of it?
  

Because some of that "spitballing" is being implemented.  All of a sudden it doesn't look like spitballing.  Also the report was very quietly buried until a journalist dug it up.  The government say this was because we poor taxpayers and voters might have gotten confused - we evidently arent too bright in their eyes.  Of course the fact they have taken several aspects of this report and made it policy may have muddied the waters a bit.  Because now the "discussion paper" IS starting to look like government policy.   Policy that they did not campaign on.
