Referring to the 1985 Hawaii Supreme Court decision on the PASH ruling, which of the following is the best description of what this did


Correct Answer:
Gave native Hawaiians the right to access any and all property regardless of ownership


Remember:
The PASH ruling recognized the traditional relationship Native Hawaiians have with the land and the importance of maintaining that relationship. Legally speaking, Hawaiians can gather salt in the places where their grandparents traditionally gathered salt, even if you must cross through undeveloped State or private lands to do so. This may not make common sense to some private landowners, but it is rooted in traditional land usage in Hawaii and fully within the laws of the State of Hawaii.
