General powers of Trustees 1.3 The Trustees have the following general powers: (a) all the powers necessary to manage the Trust Property including, in relation to the Trust Property, all the powers of an absolute owner of the property; and (b) all the powers necessary to carry out the terms of the Trust, including powers incidental to those in paragraph (a).
When the land has many owners, it’s important that the costs are shared fairly among everyone.
Trustee responsibilities can include: researching options for the whenua on behalf of owners attending regular trustee meetings to discuss and debate plans for the trust communicating with owners and organising hui for owners or trustees to discuss plans for the whenua visiting the whenua regularly to check on the wellbeing of the land, and working with people involved in the whenua or trust, such as a lessee, accountant, or management team.
They may also call an owner hui where, if necessary, trustees will be replaced or elected.
He has led Māori Land Court appointed facilitation processes, Meetings of Owners, and governance appointments, supporting whānau, trustees, and landowners to resolve complex issues through tikanga informed, consent based processes.
