domestic relationships are clearly disqualifying.

Acquaintance
As a trustee you need to know:
what is being administered by the trust (any land or other assets of the trust)
the terms of trust (your powers and responsibilities under the trust order)
all the issues affecting the trust.
Once you have received the sealed order from the Court setting out the money that is owed to you, it's your responsibility to contact the trust or incorporation holding the money. You will need to ask what information they need from you to pay the money to you.
The
land interests would then go directly back
to those beneficiaries of the estate who
contributed shares to the whānautrust.
‘Māori Land Trusts’ includes a section on
whānautrusts.
