But many do, and the
key task in any reform of the Act will be to ensure that the Court retains an
appropriate adjudicatory and facilitatory function, and that the succession process
remains simple and transparent, as Māori have come to expect.
Third, the report simply recommends that the Act contain provisions to address
“barriers caused by excessive fragmentation of Māori land ownership interests” but
does not make any specific suggestions.
If an owner of Māori freehold land in multiple ownership has paid more than their share of water services changes, they can apply to the MāoriLand Court for a “charging order” to recover the excess amount paid.

OCCUPATION ORDER:
An occupation order provides the right to build on a piece of
land owned by multiple owners (but does not grant a title of
ownership over that piece of land).
It also enables Māori landowners to seek a charging order
if they have paid more than their share of water services
charges on Māori freehold land held in multiple ownership.
