NOTIFYING BENEFICIAL OWNERSOF A GENERAL OR SPECIAL MEETING
12.1 The Trustees must take all reasonable steps to notify the Beneficial Owners that a General
or Special Meeting of Beneficial Owners is to be held ("Notice").

• the effect of the proposal on the interests
of the owners or the shareholders of a
Māori incorporation
• the best overall use and development of
the land.
