Having joined the Ministry of Justice in 2007 he has worked across the organisation in various leadership roles and jurisdictions including the Waitangi Tribunal Unit, Māori Land Court, Tribunals Unit, Te Ture Whenua Māori reforms and most recently in the District Court.
Apart from the general principles underlying the statute, and the general objectives that the Court must take account of, there is very little guidance in Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993 as to the matters the Court should consider when deciding whether to set aside land as a new urupā.
Final resolution
That an application be filed with the Māori Land Court to constitute the [name of ahu whenua
or whenua tōpū trust], appoint [list the full names of the elected trustees] as trustees and
approve the draft trust order.
