Ka tuhia te tono ki roto ki ngā rīkoata o te
kooti mēnā e pā ana ki te whenua, ā, ka
tonoa ki te tangata, ki te rōpū rānei kia
mahia ngā mahi o te tono, pēnei i te kaitiaki
rawa o te Māori, arā Māori trustee, kia
utua ngā moni kei te puritia e ia, ā, me te
kaporeihana Māori mēnā e pā atu ana ki ngā

Ngā mahi a ngā tiaki whenua
Kei te herea ngā tiaki whenua ki te ’ture’ arā
ki te ture Trustee Act 1956.
Ko ā rātou tino mahi, he whakanui ake i
ngā taonga pūtea, me te whakaiti iho i ngā
herenga utu o te tiaki whenua.
