Pātaka Whenua will be unavailable for an upcoming maintenance. We apologise for any inconvenience.
Thursday, 5 March, from 5:30pm - 7:00pm.
Due to limited access to the building, the Auckland Information Office is available by appointment only. Please contact us by email at mlctamakimakaurau@justice.govt.nz
Before you submit an application to the Court, make sure you have had a kōrero with your whānau. Kaitiaki whenua (land guardianship) is about the collective and the wellbeing of whenua, whānau and whakapapa.
Please include as much information as possible in your enquiry. Names of whānau, trusts, and whenua and related documents make it easier for us to complete research and provide a quality response.
Speak clearly into your phone or microphone and state your name before you speak.
If there are other people attending or appearing for the same matter, please mute your device while other people are speaking.
Upcoming trustee training

agreement or sufficient degree of support from the owners
the value of each landblock and the shares (before amalgamation)
the value of the new landblock (after amalgamation)
access arrangements to the new landblock, and
new shareholding, based on the value of the pre-amalgamation shares, in the new landblock.
