13 DID THE DECEASED LEGALLY ADOPT ANY CHILDREN INTO THEIR FAMILY OR WERE ANY CHILDREN ADOPTED OUT OF
THE FAMILY?
I stress that a whānau trust is designed to manage specified shares in Māori land, it facilitates the bringing together of interests for the benefit of descendants and most importantly is a valuable tool to prevent ongoing fragmentation or, more correctly, fractionalisation of shares.
When this happens, descendants
who do whakapapa to the land are often not entitled to succeed
to their land interest or shares until the spouse or partner enters
a new relationship, dies or surrenders their interest.

SHARES HELD IN A PŪTEA OR WHĀNAU TRUST
If Māori incorporation shares are held in a pūtea or whānau
trust, the names of the trustees16 can be entered on the share
register as the owner of those shares.
