In August 2020, the Government passed targeted
changes to Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993 to simplify
the legal processes for owning, occupying and using
Māori land.
An application was filed in the Court by Johnson Raumati, a
descendant of Mary Naera for a Judicial Conference under section 67 Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993.
The applicant filed the application to seek solutions to prevent the sale by Council and to secure the
future of the land for Mary’s whānau.
Māori land trusts
Māori land trusts are used to manage whenua owned by multiple people. Because Māori land can have so many owners, creating a trust can be an efficient way to make decisions about the whenua.
