The Māori Land Court bench have released a practice note for lending money on whenua Māori. Unlocking finance is an important part of facilitating the occupation, development, and utilisation of whenua Māori for the benefit of owners, their whānau, and their hapū and this practice note is another step on the road to realising this vision.

Our Māori Land Update is released annually and provides:
the number of customary and freehold titles of Māori land
the number and types of management structures and the size of the land they are responsible for managing.
We know it takes time to complete a survey, but your thoughts will directly influence our efforts to provide a better service for all court users. We truly appreciate the gift of your time.
For some applications, landowners will need to notify other owners of their application to the Court ahead of time so they can attend hui, support the application, make a payment offer, or object to the application.
