Succession is the legal transfer of interests or shares in Māori
land from a person who has passed away to the people who
are legally entitled to own those interests.
The Act now clarifies that Māori Land Court judges will follow
the tikanga of the hapū or iwi associated with the land being
succeeded to when deciding whether whāngai can succeed to
a land interest.
This means that in some cases whāngai may succeed to land
interests as if they were a birth child or grandchild of the
person who has passed.
