There is a close correlation between the small number of Māori women who become partners in law firms and senior counsel, and the pool of those considered eligible for appointment to the bench. While judges have been chosen from other areas of the profession, these are the exception rather than the rule.
You can also request the appointment of someone who is not on the mediator list to hear your dispute.
The Minister of Māori Development, Willie Jackson, confirmed Judge Thomas' appointment on 22 March 2023.
You don’t need to make an appointment to come and see us. You can also call or email us.
