The Local Government (Water Services) Act 2025
introduces new provisions that allow owners of Māoriland
and water service providers to appeal to the MāoriLand
Court over decisions about access to Māoriland for water
infrastructure.
The Act also allows for appeals to the Māori Appellate
Court in relation to decisions of the MāoriLand Court
around access to Māoriland for water infrastructure.
The new Mediation regime establishes a dispute resolution process based on tikanga Māori
to assist owners of MāoriLand to resolve disagreements and conflict about their land.
Why make this change?
Succession to Māoriland interests can be complex for whānau
and for whāngai, and Māoriland is often owned by members
of different whānau (with different views on whāngai
succession).
The new Mediation regime establishes a dispute resolution process based on tikanga Māori to assist owners of MāoriLand to resolve disagreements and conflict about their land.
