This form may be used by the executor(s)/administrator(s) of an estate to certify those persons entitled to the Māori
freehold land interests held by the estate, and/or in the case of a deceased Māori, any GeneralLand intrests.
This form may be used to apply to the Court to confirm one or more resolutions passed by owners in Māori Freehold
Land or GeneralLand owned by Māori who together are members of the same family and who have taken the
opportunity to meet together following a family gathering (such as tangi, wedding or reunion).
The modern MāoriLand Court exists in an environment that is significantly different to that in which was created on 30 October 1865 by the General Assembly of the New Zealand Colony under the Native Lands Act 1865.
Any owner or interested person may use this form to apply to the Court to call or direct the Registrar to call a meeting
of assembled owners for any Māori Freehold land or GeneralLand owned by Māori to consider 1 or more resolutions for
those matters set out in section 172 of Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993 (attached as a schedule to this form)

After Part 4 searches had been carried out at the MāoriLand Court I learnt that in 1967 an uncle of mine had appeared at the MāoriLand Court and had succeeded to some interests in the name of his mother and father (my grandparents).
