Fisheries Act 1996
The Fisheries Act 1996 enables a Judge of the Māori Land Court to hear applications and make recommendations for the establishment of a Taiapure - local fishery.
The Māori Land Court (Te Kooti Whenua Māori) is the
New Zealand court that hears matters relating to Māori
land. The special bond between Māori people and the
land is recognised by the Māori Land Court, and the
records held by this Court form an invaluable part of the
whakapapa of all Māori.
