The introduction of Pātaka Whenua marked
the closing of MLIS (MāoriLand Information
System), the previous MāoriLand Court technol-
ogy system, which has served the court and land-
owners/users since 1999.

These are maintained by the local council, or the New Zealand Transport Agency if the roadway is a state highway or motorway. A private Māori roadway on Māori freehold land can only become a public roadway if:
there’s enough support from the owners of that roadway for it to become public
the local council has agreed in writing to take over and maintain the roadway, and
compensation between the owners and council has been agreed and paid.
