The idea was that an individual or a whānau could consolidate their shares across a large area and in a large number of blocks with many owners, down into a particular piece of land that they would call their own.
Some administration of the whānau trust is required. An IRD number had to be obtained. We get a small amount of dividend payments each year and a tax return has to be prepared.
Within the Māori Land Court districts, average ownership numbers range from 51 owners per block in the Tākitimu district to 154 owners per block in the Waiariki district.
