Dispute resolution service
The mediation process
What if a resolution is not reached? Ko te whakapapa te ara ki o mātua tupuna
It is your connections to each other that keep you connected to your ancestors Dispute resolution service
Our dispute resolution service is a free, voluntary, tikanga-based process where parties can resolve disputes related to Māori land confidentially, outside of a court setting.
The appointment of Dr Ruakere Hond as a Pūkenga to assist the court, under s 32A of Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993, provided the level of care required in the matter and one the Court is extremely grateful for.
Māori land trusts
Māori land trusts are used to manage whenua owned by multiple people. Because Māori land can have so many owners, creating a trust can be an efficient way to make decisions about the whenua.
