Our kaimahi are here to guide you and your whānau through this experience.
Our key purpose is to promote the retention of Māori land in Māori hands, and to support landowners to use, occupy and develop their whenua for the benefit of all landowners, and their whānau and hapū. As a court of record, we are responsible for the accurate documentation of the succession and management of Māori land.
Chief Judge Fox (Ngāti Porou, Rongowhakaata, Te Whānau a Apanui) is the 17th Chief Judge of the Māori Land Court, and the first wahine Māori to hold the role.

“Pātaka Whenua also enables a connectedness that has not existed before – whānau living in across the ditch and further afield will have the same access to the court record, a taonga tuku iho, as those who are able to visit us in person today.”
Information, resources and links have been arranged to make it easier for you to find as you begin or continue your whenua and whānau journey. The website is also the gateway to our online portal Pātaka Whenua.
Chief Judge Fox is a descendent of Ngāti Porou and Rongowhakaata, with ties to Te Whānau a Apanui. She is the fifth judge to be appointed as Chairperson of the Waitangi Tribunal, following Chief Judge Kenneth Gillanders Scott, Tā Justice Taihakurei Durie, Tā Justice Joe Williams and Chief Judge Wilson Isaac.
Ko Kaiwhakawā Matua Fox (nō Ngāti Porou, Rongowhakaata, Te Whānau ā Apanui), te Kaiwhakawā Matua tekau mā whitu o Te Kooti Whenua Māori, ā, ko ia hoki te wahine tuatahi ki te whiwhi i tēnei tūranga.
Having a conversation with your whānau about your whenua and whakapapa can be helpful before getting started.
Ka taea tēnei mēnā he whānau kotahi ngā kaipupuri (ākene pea ka hiahia te whānau ki te hanga pāmu mahi moni).
