Your key duties as a trustee are to:
continue to grow the value of the land or shares without creating significant costs
protect the assets of the trust.
Trusts can be 'interest based' or 'land based'. Interest based trusts hold interests (or shares in Māori land blocks, while ‘land based’ trusts may manage a Māori land block or blocks on behalf of landowners.
Setting up an incorporation
Previously, landowners seeking to form an incorporation
need to show that owners with not less than 15 percent of
shares in the Māori land consented to the proposal.
Māori landowners can use, develop, and manage their land and ensure benefits for all owners. An ahu whenua trust:
holds the trustees legally responsible for the management of the land, and
uses a Māori Land Court-approved trust order, which sets out the rights and responsibilities of the trustees and beneficial owners.
