submitting a further application to the Māori Land Court
seeking advice or continuing with further mediation outside of the Māori Land Court
investigating further options if you’re not satisfied with the outcome of mediation.

Toitū Te WhenuaLand Information New Zealand
Toitū Te Whenua holds land and location-based information covering all of New Zealand.
The Act stipulates that the Court's objective is to keep Māori lands in Māori hands, protect wāhi tapu, and assist landowners in living on, developing, and using their land for the benefit of all owners, their whānau, and their hapū.
Since the establishment of the Native land Court 1865, we have collected and managed over 23 million documents, all of which are linked in some way to whenua and whānau Māori.
