The purpose of the National Pänui / Te Pänui ä Motu is
to provide notice to interested parties of hearings being
conducted in, and applications received by, the Mäori Land
Court.
Only applications and sittings that were confirmed at the
time of this publication are listed.
The annual report reflects on what once again was very a busy year for the court, highlighting activity over the period, and giving insight into the collaborative efforts of the judiciary and the staff of the Māori Land Court to improve timeliness of outcomes for court users and to be a Māori Court that provides a shelter for the people, their land, and their kōrero.
They are designed to support our users with different levels of digital confidence and make searching easier to follow.

Developed by judges for judges and published by Te Kura Kaiwhakawā (Institute of Judicial Studies), the bench book offers guidance on what judges may need to know, understand, and do when hearing applications in the Māori Land Court (the Court).
Importantly, it also tells the story of the modern Māori Land Court, who we are, what we do, and what motivates us to provide a high level of service to Māori landowners.
