CHANGES TO THE CONSTITUTION
Section 253A of the Act and Rule 4(1)(h) of the Regulations
allow shareholders to alter the constitution by putting further
restrictions on the powers of the committee of management.
In July 2019, the Government passed the Trusts Act 2019
(replacing the Trustee Act 1956). This new Act sets out
the core principles and default rules for trusts, including
trusts created under Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993. The aim is to make the law easier to understand.
In August 2020, the Government passed targeted
changes to Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993 to simplify
the legal processes for owning, occupying and using
Māori land.
