Succession to further interests
If you’ve already submitted your succession application and you discover that there are more Māori land interests to include, you can apply for succession to further interests.
To my Māori language, it is because of you I was able to experience the many initiatives that I now hold close to my heart, those being Te Taumata, Te Kura Reo o Whirinaki, the many Kura Reo that are held throughout the land, Te Tohu Paerua ote Reo Kairangi.
Access to Māori land was generally considered when the title of the land was originally issued and in many cases:
a roadway would have been created to give access to the land
there may have already been a public or private roadway servicing the land, or
a right of way to access land, across a neighbouring property, may have been put in place.
As the first fully bilingual judgment issued in its history, it signals the enhancement of te reo Māori in the Court. This, at a time when the nation is celebrating the 50th year of the anniversary of the Māori language petition, the 40th anniversary of te kohanga reo and the 35th anniversary of te reo Māori becoming an official language of Aotearoa New Zealand.
This means that wills do not apply, and all legal children are entitled to succeed in equal proportions.
Kei te rārangi te ingoa o taku matua, ā, kei te ora tonu ia.
