The Level 2 protocol for the Māori Land Court was released on 13 May 2020 and provided that the judiciary would continue to determine applications on the papers where possible, and hearings by way of by telephone conference, zoom and AVL would be preferred to in-person hearings. 4 Where in-person hearings are scheduled, there will be a series of measures to ensure the safety of participants, and compliance with social distancing hygiene restrictions.
Traditionally, the practice of whāngai was to strengthen whānau, hapū and iwi ties and relationships and to honour the responsibility that whānau had to each other.
The majority of land set aside was transferred to identified beneficiaries included western and eastern Murihiku, Rakiura, Te Tai Poutini and Te Tau Ihu.
