Aligning trust procedures to changes in
the Act
You should update your procedures as necessary to reflect the
changes to Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993.
In August 2020, the Government passed targeted
changes to Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993 to simplify
the legal processes for owning, occupying and using
Māori land.
In addition, there were requirements in Te Ture Whenua Maori Act 1993 and previous legislation for the transmittal of Māori Land Court orders as to title, which had not been consistently applied.
Mā tēnei ka whai
mana te papa kāinga i raro i te ture, kātahi te
Kooti ka āhei ki te tuku whakahau hei tohu
trust 6 hei whakahaere i te papa kāinga nei.
You must own an interest in the land or be the beneficiary of a whānautrust that owns an interest in the land.
The title of ownership remains with the landowners, but the occupation order may be passed on by succession.
In 2023, successors to the Hāwea-Wānaka block voted for interim representation, through a process facilitated by Te Arawhiti (Te Tari Whakatau) and Te Puni Kōkiri.
