For
example, for an application for succession, you’ll need a
death certificate, any grant of administration (grant of
probate2 or letters of administration3) or the original will,
minutes of a whānau meeting if a whānau trust is required,
and consents of the proposed trustees.
THIS EXAMPLE HAS BEEN PREPARED TO INFORM PERSONS WHO SEEK AN
OCCUPATION ORDER OF THE TERMS THAT MAY BE GRANTED BY THE COURT IF THE
APPLICATION FOR AN OCCUPATION ORDER IS SUCCESSFUL.
The income usually goes to pay those concerned with the management of the land with the balance being used to awhi marae or to provide education grants and kaumatua grants. There are perhaps 20 or 30 large and successful trusts and incorporations, which are an exception to this.

Why make this change?
Succession to Māori land interests can be complex for whānau
and for whāngai, and Māori land is often owned by members
of different whānau (with different views on whāngai
succession).
