Our practice notes Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993
Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993 (the Act) sets out the full authority, power and limitations of the Māori Land Court and the Māori Appellate Court.
As the first fully bilingual judgment issued in its history, it signals the enhancement of te reo Māori in the Court. This, at a time when the nation is celebrating the 50th year of the anniversary of the Māori language petition, the 40th anniversary of te kohanga reo and the 35th anniversary of te reo Māori becoming an official language of Aotearoa New Zealand.
