Disputes can delay whānau connecting to and using whenua. Whānau who agree to enter mediation to resolve disputes can do so out of court, pay no filing fee and can practice the tikanga of your whānau and hapū in that mediation.
Before you submit an application to the Court, make sure you have had a kōrero with your whānau. Kaitiaki whenua (land guardianship) is about the collective and the wellbeing of whenua, whānau and whakapapa.
It can help to mend fractured relationships and address some of the maemae associated with whānau relationships. A mediator will be there to support everyone, including you and your whānau, and to provide an impartial view when addressing issues.
The practice note demystifies what can appear a complex subject, and support both whānau and lenders to improve access to finance for development activity on whenua Māori.
Traditional whenua boundaries of hapū and whānau were changed and not all members were granted ownership.
Succession to Māori land interests can be complex for whānau and for whāngai, and Māori land is often owned by members of different whānau (with different views on whāngai succession).
