Discussion
I have considered the June and July 2025 court sitting dates for Wairoa Cour...
If the chairperson decides that the notice is not valid, the reasons for that determination must
be recorded on the proxy form and a copy kept for the trust records.
There are various other rules and regulations under which we operate, including: External link
Māori Land Court Rules 2011
Sets out how we operate, including how we receive, review, notify, process and conclude applications.
External link
Māori Land Court Fees Regulations 2013
Sets our application fees.
The main priorities for the Court now are first, to remedy errors in the lists, using s 86 of TTWMA, and second, to update the list of successors based on previous and new evidence, the latter of which requires hearings to be held so evidence can be heard. An application form based on the existing form for successions has been modified for the purposes of SILNA determinations, and individual applications are linked to a central file to ensure consistency.
While the Māori Land Court is not required to consider the local authority district plan when determining an application for an urupā reservation on Māori freehold land, a stricter approach may be taken if the urupā is proposed to be placed on general land.
You can apply
if you are:
• the owner of the Māori land shares to be transferred
• the person who will receive the Māori land shares
• a trustee for either of the people mentioned above.
The applicant, or counsel for the applicant, must sign the
application for the vesting order.
