Te Kooti Whenua Māori – Māori Land Court
Below is a step-by-step guide on how to download a List of Current Owners Report on Pātaka Whenua as a
registered user.
The practice note addresses important questions that whānau and professionals working in the sector are grappling with including:
How do owners of whenua Māori approve a mortgage?
Before you submit an application to the Court, make sure you have had a kōrero with your whānau. Kaitiaki whenua (land guardianship) is about the collective and the wellbeing of whenua, whānau and whakapapa.
Trustee duties
Ngā mōhiotanga
Acquaintance
As a trustee you need to know:
what is being administered by the trust (any land or other assets of the trust)
the terms of trust (your powers and responsibilities under the trust order)
all the issues affecting the trust.
Once you have had a discussion with your whānau about your aspirations for your whenua and you have come up with a plan, our Pae Manawa are here to support you with your next steps.
This helps to ensure the hearing goes as smoothly as possible for you and your whānau. Before the court hearing, we will contact you to arrange a test call.
The Māori Land Court is notifying all owners of the above block about the following hui: Whenua: Lot 26 Reserve 873 (199 Tuahiwi Rd) Date: Thursday, 27 February Time: 10 am Venue: Māori Land Court 20 Lichfield Street Christchurch Kaupapa:

Agree on next steps
Vote on whether to form an ahu whenua trust, or alternative options for managing the whenua in future.
“Pātaka Whenua also enables a connectedness that has not existed before – whānau living in across the ditch and further afield will have the same access to the court record, a taonga tuku iho, as those who are able to visit us in person today.”
