MEDIA STATEMENT
Chief Justice welcomes the appointment of
new Chief Māori Land Court Judge
The Chief Justice welcomes the announcement by Associate Minister of Māori
Development, the Hon Nanaia Mahuta, of Judge Caren Fox’s appointment as
Chief Judge of Te Kooti Whenua Māori | Māori Land Court.
The Tākitimu Māori Land Court has moved into its newly refurbished premises in Farming House, Hastings with the new space formally opened during a kawanga whare (formal building opening ceremony) on 31 July.
Designed in partnership with mana whenua, the refurbished court provides a contemporary and culturally grounded environment that better supports the needs of whānau, hapū, and communities engaging with the Court.
The beneficiaries are called the beneficial owners.
