TIME: APPLICATIO...
Incorporations appear to have fallen out of favour and I know of only one that has been formed in the last 20 years. In contrast new ahu whenua trusts for the management of Māori freehold land are regularly set up through the Māori Land Court.
Use this form to appoint, remove, or replace trustee or change the number of trustees of a Whānau Trust, Kaitiaki Trust,
Ahu Whenua Trust, Whenua Tōpū Trust, Pūtea Trust or Māori Reservation.
