Near match search is now available across Ownership, Document, Block, and Management Structure. This makes it easier to find information even with partial or similar details. See the Search Tips page for guidance.
But a workable and popular model for kin group holding without individual shares has been found in the whānau trust. Here an individual can form the trust and appoint trustees and the shareholding, which maybe across many blocks, is held for the uri of that individual down through the generations.
The respective whānau trusts are coordinated through an ahu whenua trust for the management of the whole block and in dealings with third parties such as the Rotorua District Council.
The Māori Land Court is notifying all owners of the above block about the following hui:

Venue: River Life Church,
