The finalised list includes 348 owners. That number will change as life interests
terminate, interests are consolidated into trusts, and applications for succession are
filed with the Court.
The idea was that an individual or a whānau could consolidate their shares across a large area and in a large number of blocks with many owners, down into a particular piece of land that they would call their own.
Within the Māori Land Court districts, average ownership numbers range from 51 owners per block in the Tākitimu district to 154 owners per block in the Waiariki district.
If you are interested in, or affected by, one of these applications and wish to make
representations concerning the application, you must notify the Court in writing by 4 pm on the 1st day of December
2025 providing your name, address, telephone number and email address (if any) and setting out your connection
with the application and brief details of your concerns.
The name of the proceedings and the case number.
2. Your role in the proceedings (e.g. applicant, respondent, legal representative for
the applicant).
