Notice for meetings of owners A common complaint from owners is that they were not aware of the meeting being held, so the question arises as to what constitutes sufficient notice.
Updated interim list of owners of the Toitoi SILNA Block Crown Land Block VIII Lords River Survey District (South Island Landless Natives Act 1906) The Māori Land Court has released an updated working list of potential owners entitled to the Toitoi Land (Crown Land Block VIII Lords River Survey District) under Section 15 of Ngāi Tahu Deed of Settlement 1997.
But, it is my experience that not all owners will participate even with notice. It is not uncommon for a block of 100-200 owners, for meetings to attract less than 10 owners – and that is on a good day.
