The purpose of the National Pänui / Te Pänui ä Motu is
to provide notice to interested parties of hearings being
conducted in, and applications received by, the Mäori Land
Court.
Our Act provides various safeguards to ensure that Māori land may only be transferred by court order following an application to succeed, gift, or sell to the PCA.
This restricts the activities that can take place on the landto those that were intended and prevents its sale - trustees cannot gift or sell the land, and the Crown cannot take it under the Public Works Act 1981 .
