E te rangatira, tēnā koe. The Māori Land Court warmly invites you once again to share your thoughts on the service you’ve received from us - this time, with a focus on your experience using Pātaka Whenua.
Te Puna Manawa Whenua is written by Māori Land Court judges. It is overseen by a judicial editing komiti, comprised of Māori Land Court judges, supported by legal research counsel from the Māori Land Court.
As well as this, the Whenua Advisory Service and Tupu website have been stood up by Te Puni Kōkiri. The Māori Land Information System (MLIS), the Court’s previous system which held information about whenua Māori and the court record, was only accessible in the court’s district offices.
