Our Te Waipounamu counter is temporarily relocating from Tuesday 7 April 2026. More details are here.
Since the passing of Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993, our role is to:
promote the retention of Māoriland in the hands of its owners, whānau and hapū
facilitate the occupation, development and use of Māoriland
ensure that decisions made about Māoriland are fair and balanced taking into account the needs of all the owners and their beneficiaries.
The changes affect all trusts,
including Māoriland trusts created through the MāoriLand Court
(such as ahu whenua, kaitiaki, and whānau trusts) and existing
trusts established before the law came into force.
