Application: ACCEPTED / REFUSED

The Act now clarifies that Māori Land Court judges will follow
the tikanga of the hapū or iwi associated with the land being
succeeded to when deciding whether whāngai can succeed to
a land interest.
Some people become landowners when a whānau member transfers land to them by gift or sale. The Maori Land Court will ‘vest’ the land interest by way of a vesting order.
Your application will be considered ‘uncontested’ when:
• it has been notified according to Māori Land Court Rules;
and
• it has been published in the Māori Land Court’s National
Pānui; and
• no one has objected to the application.
That provides a great deal of protection because the land cannot be sold or gifted away. Nor can the land be taken by way of an agreement under the Public Works Act 1981.
