This includes a list of all aggregated (or combined) Māori land blocks. It does not include information about Crown Land, Crown Land Reserved for Māori, general land owned by Māori, or land blocks under internal review.
This model for the utilisation of multiply-owned Māori land had its origins in Taitokerau in 1989 where, under s 438 of the Māori Affairs Act 1953, a block was vested in a trust with exclusive use areas identified in a schedule to the trust order for whānau shareholding groups.
