In July 2019, the Government passed the Trusts Act 2019
(replacing the Trustee Act 1956). This new Act sets out
the core principles and default rules for trusts, including
trusts created under Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993. The aim is to make the law easier to understand.
In August 2020, the Government passed targeted
changes to Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993 to simplify
the legal processes for owning, occupying and using
Māori land.

About Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993
Te Ture Whenua Māori Act is the primary legislation for Māori land.
WHY MAKE THIS CHANGE? The time and travel costs associated with attending a court
sitting are removed when an application can be decided by a
registrar. This approach also supports the efficient running of the Māori
Land Court. WHAT DO I NEED TO DO?
