Legislative changes affecting incorporations
Effective from Waitangi Day, 6 February 2021
Register of interest and annual declaration
Māori incorporations must establish and maintain an interests
register for the Māori land held by the incorporation.
The register will record, for each member of the management
committee: details of member’s interest in the Māori freehold
land incorporated; the dealings in the interests by the
member; and declarations made by members.
