In the past the Housing Corporation, and its replacement Housing New Zealand, have been prepared to finance the building of dwellings on Māori land by taking security over the house, provided that the borrower can obtain a licence to occupy from the owners or trustees, where the land is held in trust, for a term of at least 21 years.
In determining whether to make an appointment, in addition to the general guiding

(a) Whether the applicant(s) are acting in a representative capacity;

(e) The nature of the proceedin...
(k) Landowner(s): [insert the names of the owners of the Parent Block or
the name of the existing management structure (in the case of a trust, name the
current trustees, followed by “as trustees of the [name of trust]”)]
(l) Maximum Occupants: [Twelve (12)] people.
For some applications, landowners will need to notify other owners of their application to the Court ahead of time so they can attend hui, support the application, make a payment offer, or object to the application.
The Māori Land Court is notifying all owners of the above blocks about the following hui:
