Use of vesting orders
Except when Māori land 2 is vested 3 in a
Māori incorporation 4, Māori land shares can
only be transferred by a vesting order 5 made
by the Māori Land Court.
Alienation involves an alienee (the person who purchases or receives the
interest in the land) and an alienor (the person who sells or parts with the interest
in the land).
2. Land whose beneficial ownership the Māori Land Court has determined by
freehold order (that is, the Court has created a title for the land and determined
the beneficial owners to that land).
