Subdivision Before applying to change or divide yourland, you must have the backing and agreement of the other owners and shareholders or trustees.
The changes affect all trusts,
including Māori land trusts created through the Māori Land Court
(such as ahu whenua, kaitiaki, and whānau trusts) and existing
trusts established before the law came into force.
This form should not be used if the decision or determination of the Māori Land Court is an interim or preliminary
decision in which there remain outstanding matters for the Court to address.
Some examples of steps you may consider include:
continuing with a current application in the Māori Land Court
submitting a further application to the Māori Land Court
seeking advice or continuing with further mediation outside of the Māori Land Court.
NOTE: The list of affected parties attached must be completed in accordance with rule 8.2(2)(e) above
