In addition, while it remains important that kanohi-ki-te-kanohi justice is conducted in our courthouses, which play an important role as the local face of justice for our communities, we should endeavour to use alternative measures such as telephone conferencing, zoom and or AVL if this is more suitable to Māori land owners and ultimately assists Māori land owners’ access to justice.
