Indeed, the owners all accept that I must resolve the issue in this instance”
Tikanga Māori is defined in Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993 (the Māori LandAct) as “Māori Customary
rights and values”.
Since the passing of Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993, our role is to:
promote the retention of Māori land in the hands of its owners, whānau and hapū
facilitate the occupation, development and use of Māori land
ensure that decisions made about Māori land are fair and balanced taking into account the needs of all the owners and their beneficiaries.
Experience tells us that the
assembled owners’ provisions can be suitable for confirming sales or leases of land,
but are good for little else. They certainly do not promote improved governance –
they were introduced by the NativeLandAct 1909 which was not concerned with
promoting Māori governance of their land.
