An appeal under Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993 may only be lodged within 2 months from the date of the

A large hui was held in December 2023 in Motueka and in May 2024, Judge Reeves

Two sections of the Trustee Act 1956 that were used from time
to time by Māori land trusts have been carried over to the new
Trusts Act:
• Trustees may apply to the Māori Land Court for directions
about the trust property or the use of their powers or
functions.1
• The Māori Land Court may relieve a trustee from personal
liability if they have acted honestly and reasonably and
ought to be excused for a breach.2
