The Landowner(s), the Occupier and any
other interested party will meet within 14 days of any notification and jointly
discus how the issue is to be resolved.
In some cases a trust order or regulation will allow a trustee to receive reasonable reimbursement for expenses they incur in their role as a trustee – they may also provide that a meeting fee or honoraria be paid. Any meeting fees or honoraria need to be approved by us so we can ensure that you have the broad support of your beneficiaries or shareholders, and that the business of the trust can afford to make such payments.

I know that presently there are difficulties for members of whānau trusts in relation to grants for education or to kaumatua, and in voting at meetings. These matters could be resolved relatively simply by legislation.

of whānau.
