Special Court Sitting...
Before you submit an application to the Court, make sure you have had a kōrero with your whānau. Kaitiaki whenua (land guardianship) is about the collective and the wellbeing of whenua, whānau and whakapapa.
An application was filed in the Court by Johnson Raumati, a
descendant of Mary Naera for a Judicial Conference under section 67 Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993.
The applicant filed the application to seek solutions to prevent the sale by Council and to secure the
future of the land for Mary’s whānau.

Dispute resolution service
The mediation process
What if a resolution is not reached? Ko te whakapapa te ara ki o mātua tupuna
It is your connections to each other that keep you connected to your ancestors Dispute resolution service
Our dispute resolution service is a free, voluntary, tikanga-based process where parties can resolve disputes related to Māori land confidentially, outside of a court setting.
The practice note demystifies what can appear a complex subject, and support both whānau and lenders to improve access to finance for development activity on whenua Māori.
Whatungarongaro te tangata toitū te whenua
As people disappear from sight, the land remains Before settlers arrived in Aotearoa New Zealand, tangata whenua cared for whenua as kaitiaki, or guardians, as hapū and whānau collectives.
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.
