About the SILNA blocks
Poraka SILNA Whakakapi o Hāwea-Wānaka
Hāwea-Wānaka Substitute SILNA Block
The Hāwea-Wānaka Substitute Block is identified in the Ngāi Tahu Claims Settlement Act 1998.
In 2017 an article in Te Karaka , Te Rūnanga o Ngāi Tahu’s on-line magazine, noted: While work is almost complete on identifying successors for the Hāwea-Wānaka block, minimal mahi has been done for the Toitoi block and almost nothing for the remaining two blocks.
(Please show name of deceased and any known aliases contained in the approved List of Successors for
Hawea/Wanaka Substitute Block for which successors need to be determined.)
