It is that responsibility, to ensure
our lands are cared for so that they remain as
kāinga for te iwi Māori, that we all share at the
MāoriLand Court, at Te Puni Kōkiri, at Te Tumu
Paeroa and within the Waitangi Tribunal.
If an owner with MāoriLand interests is deceased, and a succession has not previously been dealt with by the Court or a
Registrar, you can use this form to seek a determination from the Court as to those persons entitled to a deceased’s
MāoriLand interests and an order transferring the interests to those entitled.
If an owner of Māori freehold land with many owners has paid more than their share of water services charges, they can apply to the MāoriLand Court for a ‘charging order’ under section 99 to recover the excess amount paid.
In 2017, an application was made to the MāoriLand Court to determine the
status of the land, the ownership of the land and the relative interests of the owners.
