Here an individual can form the trust and appointtrustees and the shareholding, which maybe across many blocks, is held for the uri of that individual down through the generations.
However, it is possible to make application to the Court to have an area excluded from a reservation pursuant to section 338(5), and then to set up an ahu whenua trust in relation to the excluded area with the object of allowing housing development to take place. Trustees could then be appointed to administer it, and they would be able to grant leases or licences for the necessary term.
