Te Runanga-A -Iwi-O-Ngapuhi -
application referred to the Court
pursuant to sections 26C and 237 of
Te Ture Whenua Maori Act 1993 to
determine a dispute concerning the
interpretation and intent of clause
4.7(b)(i) of Te Runanga-A-Iwi O-
Ngapuhi Trust Deed (the Trust Deed)
and whether the decision making
process was consistent with clauses
26-30 of the Trust Deed.
The idea was that an individual or a whānau could consolidate their shares across a large area and in a large number of blocks with many owners, down into a particular piece of land that they would call their own.

engaged owners model is inherently problematic.
The unengaged owners are not the problem the report imagines
For a significant number of blocks of multiply-owned Māori land today, the engaged
owners are a minority of the owners.

If you know that Christopher's block is, for example, Ruamata , but aren’t sure how his name is spelt, you can enter Christoper Crbb into the Owner Name search field and Ruamata into the Land Block Name search field to narrow the results.
TAKE NOTICE that Philip Seymour has made application to the Māori Land Court at Te Waipounamu for a meeting of assembled owners seeking a partition of the Otonga 3 block.
