Our Customer Charter
The Māori Land Court is a part of the Ministry of Justice (The Ministry). Like the Ministry, our purpose is to deliver people-centred services to provide access to justice for all.
However, the reality was that some of our Māori Land Court staff were ill-equipped to do this due to both a lack of resources, and a lack of access to court records. While the Ministry of Justice tried to disseminate resources such as laptops and tablets, preference was given to the courts dealing with priority proceedings.
