"And it adds weight to the Maori Party's decision to stand candidates in the other six Maori seats and we wish them all the best in their endeavours."
Mana Movement will only stand in the Te Tai Tokerau electorate while Maori Party will stand in Tamaki Makaurau, Hauraki-Waikato, Waiariki, Ikaroa-Rawhiti, Te Tai Hauauru and Te Tai Tonga but not Te Tai Tokerau.
Labour holds six of the Maori seats and Te Ururoa Flavell, Maori Party co-leader, holds the seventh (Waiariki). Mr Harawira lost the Te Tai Tokerau seat in 2014, narrowly beaten by Labour's Kelvin Davis.
The Maori Party's candidate in the electorate drew more than 2500 votes, and it's possible most of them would have gone to Mr Harawira if he had been given a clear run.
Ms McNab said both parties will be free to develop the policies they think best; to campaign for the party vote; and to criticise one another's policies without attacking each other's candidates.
"We've got a big job ahead of us" said Ms McNab "Things are even tougher now for our people than they were when Hone left, so we take nothing for granted."
The agreement states any and all contravening clauses/rules contained within existing party rules, constitutions or ture will be suspended and replaced with the terms contained within the agreement and will conclude on September 23, the day of the election.
