Ngā Āhuatanga o te whenua
June 2024 | Hune 2024
This update is issued by the Office of the Chief Registrar, Māori Land Court | Te Kooti Whenua Māori
as part of the ongoing efforts to help inform and assist owners, organisations and government
agencies about the characteristics of Māori Customary and Māori Freehold Land.
Which are as follows:
Ahu Whenua trusts, which are land management trusts designed to promote the use and
administration of the lands on behalf of the owners.
Where that land is vested in a trust or an incorporation,
such an order will only be made with the consent of the trust
or management committee, and may be made for a specified
period.
...to be removed from the trust and to who those shares will be transferred
If you apply to terminate a trust which was set up under section 132(6) of Te Ture Whenua Māori Act (Māori customary land being managed by another Māori land trust), the land must be vested in another trust.
