Legislative changes supporting
housing initiatives
Effective from Waitangi Day, 6 February 2021
Why make this change?
The changes in the Act respond to demand to build
papakāinga housing on Māori land for the purposes of
supporting Māori into housing and whānau to return to
their whenua.
The aim is to redress the disproportionately small number of Māori women in high positions in the legal profession. In February 2016 the coram for a sitting of the Māori Appellate Court was, for the first time, made up of Māori women judges, and women registry staff.

Effective from Waitangi Day, 6 February 2021
