Near match search is now available across Ownership, Document, Block, and Management Structure. This makes it easier to find information even with partial or similar details. See the Search Tips page for guidance.
Our Te Waipounamu counter is temporarily relocating from Tuesday 7 April 2026. More details are here.
We
are a unique institution, the only indigenous land court in the world.
Our key purpose is to promote the retention of whenua Māori in Māori hands, and to support landowners
to use, occupy and develop their whenua for the benefit of owners, their whānau, and hapū.
This package forms part of the funding towards the recovery for whenua Māori owners affected by Cyclone Gabrielle. The funding is for clean-up of sediment & debris, where mahi has already been completed (either by owners or by contractors) and for any similar mahi to be completed in the future.
