Setting up an incorporation Previously, landowners seeking to form an incorporation need to show that owners with not less than 15 percent of shares in the Māori land consented to the proposal.
If an owner of Māori freehold land with many owners has paid more than their share of water services charges, they can apply to the Māori Land Court for a ‘charging order’ under section 99 to recover the excess amount paid.

Examples of what could be considered ‘simple’ trust matters include: • forming a whānau trust for a single owner’s interests or shares; or • terminating a kaitiaki trust for a minor when the person reaches 20 years of age; or • appointing a trustee to a whānau trust.

However, because I became a Judge only a matter of weeks ago, I do not yet have many stories to share with you about my new job. Unfortunately, that means part of this speech will have to be about me, so I also want to talk about my time here at this whare wananga and some personal learnings through my career that I hope will be useful as you all embark on yours.
In your application, you’ll need to provide: evidence that those persons holding at least 10% of the shares in the incorporation seek an investigation or evidence that a special resolution was passed at a general meeting of the shareholders seeking an investigation the grounds upon which an investigation is sought, and any matters that should be brought to the immediate attention of a judge.
It is a great honour for me but what makes it so special is being able to share it with all of you so thank you. I also once again want to thank Ngāti Whakaue and Te Arawa whānui for the privilege of having this occasion in this beautiful, esteemed house.
