Embracing the new for the benefit of
Māori landowners
This year we experienced significant change,
largely driven by the introduction of Pātaka
Whenua.
Our Purpose
Our purpose is to promote and facilitate the reten-

landowners to use, occupy, and develop their
whenua for the benefit of all landowners, their
whānau and hapū.
(b) The Occupier shall allow reasonable access by the Landowner(s) onto the Site
for the purpose of the Landowner(s) monitoring compliance with these terms
and conditions of occupation.
