This model for the utilisation of multiply-owned Māori land had its origins in Taitokerau in 1989 where, under s 438 of the Māori Affairs Act 1953, a block was vested in a trust with exclusive use areas identified in a schedule to the trust order for whānau shareholding groups.
Delegations of authority
6.1 A chairperson who cannot attend ameeting may delegate the role to another trustee.
6.2 The trustees may co-opt people to assist them with any aspect of business, but a co-opted member may not
vote.

Māori Assembled Owners Regulations 1995
Sets out the rules on howameeting of owners of Māori land must be held, how it is recorded and how the outcomes are reported.
Te Tiriti provides us
witha good framework to think about those relationships, and we can think about howto establish
mutually respectful, balanced relationships between the kāwanatanga space and the tino
rangatiratanga space.
You will need to provide:
evidence of meetings held (including the notice) to add, reduce or replace trustees and the meeting minutes
resignations (if any) for existing trustees
