Access to Māori land was generally considered when the title of the land was originally issued and in many cases:
a roadway would have been created to give access to the land
there may have already been a public or private roadway servicing the land, or
a right of way to access land, across a neighbouring property, may have been put in place.
Freehold titles are often divided by partition order.
The land retains the status of Māori land. The status of the land will continue to
be Māori land unless and until the Māori Land Court makes an order changing the
status of the land.
