After Part 4 searches had been carried out at the Māori Land Court I learnt that in 1967 an uncle of mine had appeared at the Māori Land Court and had succeeded to some interests in the name of his mother and father (my grandparents).
The Māori Land Court’s role is to identify all successors and their relative beneficial interests by identifying all persons entitled to succeed to the interest of an original beneficiary in SILNA lands: (a) As though the land was Māori freehold land; and (b) As though the deceased person died intestate (applying the principles of s 109 of Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993 (TTWMA)).
Two types of Māori land are defined - Māori freehold land and Māori customary land.
The Māori Land Court is conducting an inquiry to establish the successors to SILNA lands pursuant to Section 29, Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993 in accordance with an application filled by the Minister of Māori Affairs, currently under application A20180009373.

(e) If the parties cannot agree on a mediator, then one will be appointed by a Judge of the Māori Land Court in the district where the relevant land is located.
