In August 2020, the Government passed targeted
changes to Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993 to simplify
the legal processes for owning, occupying and using
Māori land.
This form should not be used to Appeal against a decision of the Māori Land Court or Māori Appellate Court
nor should it be used to correct an administrative error in a minute or order of the Court.
The changes affect all trusts,
including Māori land trusts created through the Māori Land Court
(such as ahu whenua, kaitiaki, and whānau trusts) and existing
trusts established before the law came into force.
