(iii) That there are no disputes as to succession or issues to be settled before an order can be made.
Requests to appoint a mediator from beyond the list require approval from the Pae Matua o Te Kooti Whenua Māori (Director of the Māori Land Court) before they can proceed.
An application was filed in the Court by Johnson Raumati, a descendant of Mary Naera for a Judicial Conference under section 67 Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993. The applicant filed the application to seek solutions to prevent the sale by Council and to secure the future of the land for Mary’s whānau.

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, so it is important to discuss your application with those who may be impacted.
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.
Whatungarongaro te tangata toitū te whenua As people disappear from sight, the land remains Before settlers arrived in Aotearoa New Zealand, tangata whenua cared for whenua as kaitiaki, or guardians, as hapū and whānau collectives.
