Since 1 July 1993, shares in a Māori incorporation are deemed to be interests in Māori land and unless there’s an exemption, they’re treated the same as Māori land interests. Whānau trusts A whānau trust can be set up at the time of succession.

Before 6 February 2021 A beneficiary of a whānau trust is not able to apply for an occupation order to use trust land for housing purposes.
With shares held by individuals becoming increasingly fractionated but shares held in whānau trusts being relatively stable, I foresee a time when these whānau trusts will be major shareholders in trusts and incorporations.
The enclosed terms of trust are an example of a COMPREHENSIVE trust order which you may use for your whānau trust.

From its beginnings as a mechanism that enabled the acquisition by Pākehā of huge tracts of Māori land, the Court has continued to evolve to the present day when it enables and assists with the retention and utilisation of Māori land by its owners, whānau and hapū. The Māori Land Court has been here for 150 years and if Māori have their way, it is here to stay.
