It sets out how Judge Reeves dealt with an application for accretion and for determination of ownership, where ownership records had not been maintained for over 100 years.
If an owner of Māori freehold land in multiple ownership has paid more than their share of water services changes, they can apply to the Māori Land Court for a “charging order” to recover the excess amount paid.
Traditional whenua boundaries of hapū and whānau were changed and not all members were granted ownership. Individual land ownership made it easier for settlers to buy and sell land.
The lease or occupation license does not grant a title of ownership; this remains with the trust. Previously, leases and occupation licenses could only be issued up to 14 years, a timeframe that made it difficult to get finance to build on Māori reservation land.

The court order The court order is the document that confirms the legal change made to the ownership and/or status of the whenua. The court order also informs the information we provide to Toitū Te Whenua Land Information New Zealand (LINZ) to ensure the changes in legal ownership are updated in their database.
Indeed, the Court of Appeal suggests that given the importance of the views of the owners on the question of whom to appoint, procedures should be devised that draw in the widest possible ownership participation. An obvious corollary to that proposition is, subject to the available resources and infrastructure of the trust to cater for such procedures.
