The judge should ensure that the minute contains sufficient information, without
unnecessary detail, to enable the parties to decide whether to make a recusal
application. It is undesirable for parties to be placed in the position of having to seek
further information from the judge.
One means of exploring a candidate’s ability to comply with s 222 is to require nominees to submit resumes with their application and for the Court to then pose questions to candidates for appointment that might include their knowledge of accounts and financial reporting, the trust order and general trust law principles, farming, forestry, tourism, geothermal power, property investment, equities and communications.
The rapid pace of Treaty settlements has created challenges for the Tribunal, and the number of the applications in the Māori Land Court continues to rise as well.
