• Ahu whenua trust
This is the most common Māori land trust. It’s designed
to promote the use and administration of the land in the
interest of the owners.
As for incorporations, the Act provides that every Māori incorporation holds the land
and assets “on trust” for the incorporated owners in proportion to their several
interests in the land (s 250(4)).
From
6 February 2021
On the death of a landowner, descendants can apply
immediately to succeed to the landinterest.
The surviving spouse or partner does not receive the landinterest but is entitled to income from the land and to occupy
the family home.
