General powers of Trustees
1.3 The Trustees have the following general powers:
(a) all the powers necessary to manage the Trust Property including, in relation to
the Trust Property, all the powers of an absolute owner of the property; and
(b) all the powers necessary to carry out the terms of the Trust, including powers
incidental to those in paragraph (a).

An occupation order provides the right to build on a piece of
land owned by multiple owners (but does not grant a title of
ownership over that piece of land).
Trustee responsibilities can include:
researching options for the whenua on behalf of owners
attending regular trustee meetings to discuss and debate plans for the trust
communicating with owners and organising hui for owners or trustees to discuss plans for the whenua
visiting the whenua regularly to check on the wellbeing of the land, and
working with people involved in the whenua or trust, such as a lessee, accountant, or management team.
