Setting up an incorporation
Previously, landowners seeking to form an incorporation
need to show that owners with not less than 15 percent of
shares in the Māori land consented to the proposal.
Chief Judge Dr Caren Fox expressed her excitement sharing this resource, stating that it captures a wealth of knowledge about the law relevant to the Court and its jurisdiction.
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 Māori Land Court for a ‘charging order’ under section 99 to recover the excess amount paid.
Examples of what could be considered ‘simple’ trust matters
include:
• forming a whānau trust for a single owner’s interests or
shares; or
• terminating a kaitiaki trust for a minor when the person
reaches 20 years of age; or
• appointing a trustee to a whānau trust.
The search results will show with five columns:
• Owner name
• Block name
• Type
• Shares/Ratio
• Minute book reference
Click the information you want to view under either the ‘owner name’ or ‘block name’ column.
There are new requirements on trustees to keep and share certain
information.
Every trustee must keep a copy of the trust deed (trust order) and
any variations made to it.
