Preservation of the integrity of the record, the record will prevail As a court of record, our key purpose is to accurately document the succession and management of Māori land. That information makes up the Māori Land Court record, which is the legal and official documentation of land ownership of whenua Māori.
The Act also allows for appeals to the Māori Appellate Court
in relation to decisions of the Māori Land Court around
