Māori trustee
The Māori trustee administers many Māori land blocks and
distributes money to the owners. The MLC automatically
sends a copy of all orders affecting ownership to the Māori
trustee to keep land records up to date.
Aggregation of titles occurs when two or more separate blocks of land share a
common ownership list. The titles remain separate, but there is only one common
ownership list for all the aggregated land (refer to section 308 of Te Ture Whenua
Māori Act 1993).
Secondly, their refinements to this structure, after many meetings, has created a model which better represents the grassroots “ownership” of the block. 1) The standard structure is the same:
The ahu whenua trustees are the legal “owners” of the block in dealings with third parties and must ensure compliance with the district plan, payment of local body rates etc and are responsible for the block’s services, access etc.
