Special Court Sitting
The following special sitt...
This means that wills do not apply, and all legal children are entitled to succeed, equally. The applications are free.
Download the application form for Hāwea-Wanaka
Download the application form for Toitoi
To apply, please email the completed form and any supporting evidence to mlcsilna@justice.govt.nz or bring the completed application into any of the Māori Land Court offices to send to the Christchurch office.
To date, the Court has determined the successors of 125 original owners and are now seeking whakapapa information for the remaining owners from around 1895 who have not yet been succeeded to. If you see any of your tīpuna listed below and know of their whakapapa lines, we would love to hear from you.
The main priorities for the Court now are first, to remedy errors in the lists, using s 86 of TTWMA, and second, to update the list of successors based on previous and new evidence, the latter of which requires hearings to be held so evidence can be heard. An application form based on the existing form for successions has been modified for the purposes of SILNA determinations, and individual applications are linked to a central file to ensure consistency.
Our Act provides various safeguards to ensure that Māori land may only be transferred by court order following an application to succeed, gift, or sell to the PCA. Ownership interests can only be transferred outside of the PCA if members of the PCA decline to apply for those interests.
APPLICATION FEE
Due to the nature of these applications, and in terms of the Court’s inquiry under section 29 of Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993 and
also in recognition of the provisions of Part 15 of the Ngāi Tahu Deed of Settlement, the Registrar for Te Waipounamu District
has approved a waiver of filing fees for applications filed on this form.
