Form 38
Rule 12.8
WHAT IS THIS FORM FOR?
[full name(s)],
apply pursuant to section 113 of Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993 (as provided for in Clause 15.6.2 of the Ngāi Tahu
Deed of Settlement and in accordance with the Court’s inquiry under section 29 of Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993),
for determination of the successors to the deceased.
We await confirmation of the details and programme for the Government’s review of Te Ture Whenua Māori Act, and so now is not the time for comment from the judiciary.
(state full name)
apply pursuant to section 113 of Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993 (as provided for in Clause 15.6.2 of the Ngāi Tahu Deed of
Settlement and in accordance with the Court’s inquiry under section 29 of Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993), for
determination of the successors to the deceased.
An obvious corollary to that proposition is, subject to the available resources and infrastructure of the trust to cater for such procedures. For example, one ahu whenua trust has over 8,000 beneficial owners for an area of land less than 200 hectares with income of less than $10,000.00 per annum.
(e) As soon as reasonably practicable after the house is established on the Site,
the Occupier shall apply to the Māori Land Court pursuant to section 18(1)(a) of
Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993 for an order determining that the house is
owned by the Occupier.
