For tax purposes, being a Māori Authority reduces your provisional tax rate from 33% to 17.5%. However, this comes with the responsibility to maintain a tax credit account.
The Act stipulates that the Court's objective is to keep Māori lands in Māori hands, protect wāhi tapu, and assist landowners in living on, developing, and using their land for the benefit of all owners, their whānau, and their hapū.
They deliver a comprehensive range of services promoting the retention, use of, and
development of Māori land as a taonga tuku iho by Māori landowners, their whanau and
hapu, and their descendants.
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.
Māori Land Court | Judge’s Corner
Judge D J Ambler
Although the TPK, MAF and MPI reports addressed different aspects of Māori land,
their common theme was the enhancement of Māori land owners’ use and
development of their land to increase its productivity.
Our key purpose is to promote the retention of Māori land in Māori hands, and to support landowners to use, occupy and develop their whenua for the benefit of all landowners, and their whānau and hapū.
Since the passing of Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993, our role is to:
promote the retention of Māori land in the hands of its owners, whānau and hapū
facilitate the occupation, development and use of Māori land
ensure that decisions made about Māori land are fair and balanced taking into account the needs of all the owners and their beneficiaries.
Further successions will be ongoing.
