This application form has been modified specifically for use in determining the successors for South Island Landless Natives
(SILNA) Lands in accordance with Part 15 of the Ngāi Tahu Deed of Settlement. The Māori Land Court is conducting an
inquiry to establish the successors to SILNA lands pursuant to Section 29, Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993 in accordance
with an application filled by the Minister of Māori Affairs, currently under application A20180009373.
This data provides a high-level summary to share with owners,
organisations, and government agencies key characteristics of Māori Customary and Māori Freehold Land.
I stress that a whānau trust is designed to manage specified shares in Māori land, it facilitates the bringing together of interests for the benefit of descendants and most importantly is a valuable tool to prevent ongoing fragmentation or, more correctly, fractionalisation of shares.
The website also
contains a link to Māori Land Online, a tool
that provides web based information on
the current ownership and title information 1
for all Māori Land Court blocks.

Preservation of the integrity of the record, the record will prevail As a court of record, our key purpose is to accurately document the succession and management of Māori land.
