If you are wanting to convert Māori customary land into freehold land, you can apply to the Court under section 132 of Te Ture Whenua Māori Act. Only a small number of customary land blocks remain in Aotearoa New Zealand and they total less than 700 hectares.
• Any revenue from the lease or licence
must be used as directed by the Māori
Land Court.
Please note that section 150A of the Act (as
amended by section 24 of Te Ture Whenua
Māori Amendment Act No. 16 2002) requires
any lease for longer than 52 years to have
the consent of at least half the beneficial
owners of the land and the approval of the
Māori Land Court.
