No record of these conversations will be publicly available on the Māori Land Court record.
If an agreement is reached through mediation, the mediator will record the terms of the agreement and provide this to the Māori Land Court.
Access to Māori land was generally considered when the title of the land was originally issued and in many cases:
a roadway would have been created to give access to the land
there may have already been a public or private roadway servicing the land, or
a right of way to access land, across a neighbouring property, may have been put in place.
