Francis Dart Fenton,
First Chief Judge
Francis Dart Fenton drafted the Native Lands
Act 1865 and was the first Chief Judge of the
Court (1865-1882). Fenton came from a middle-
class family of solicitors in England, and
qualified as a solicitor after a period as an
articled clerk in his uncle’s law firm in the town
of Huddersfield.
Traditionally, the practice of whāngai was to strengthen whānau, hapū and iwi ties and relationships and to honour the responsibility that whānau had to each other.
The whānau trustees are not “owners” of their exclusive use areas but, subject to their obligations under the ahu whenua trust, have responsibility for the use and occupation of their whānau areas.
Interest based trusts
Tarati whānau (utu tāpae $68)
Whānau trust (filing fee $68)
A whānau trust combines the interests of a whānau (family) into a single trust.
Ko tēnei te tiaki whenua
motuhake mō te whānau. E whakahuihui
ana tēnei tikanga i ngā hea o te whānau i
roto i tētahi whenua Māori hei painga mō
te whānau me ngā uri kei te heke mai.
