Ahu whenua and whenua tōpū trusts are
land management trusts and generally involve whole
blocks of land.
• Kaitiaki trust
A kaitiaki trust relates solely to an individual who is a
minor5 or has a disability6 and is unable to manage their
own affairs.
The benefits of an ahu whenua trust include:
a greater opportunity to use the land
trustees can be appointed to administer and manage the block
owners can participate in meetings and decisions about the direction of the trust
the trust becomes the single point of contact for the block, and
the trust is a legal entity and trustees can set up a bank account to hold any funds for the beneficiaries.
The Act recognises that blocks of Māori land are generally
owned by people connected to each other and to the land
through kin groups, such as iwi7 and hapū8.
