Search by Ownership
You can use the ownership search option if you know either the owner name, owner ID, block name, block ID, block
district, ownership category, ownership type, or a combination of the options.
In other respects, as I will also explain, the
engaged owners model is inherently problematic.
The unengaged owners are not the problem the report imagines
For a significant number of blocks of multiply-owned Māori land today, the engaged
owners are a minority of the owners.
The idea was that an individual or a whānau could consolidate their shares across a large area and in a large number of blocks with many owners, down into a particular piece of land that they would call their own.
Persons bound to deal with property on behalf of the owners or beneficiaries.
The trustee becomes the legal owner when the order appointing them as trustee
for the land is registered against the title.
For more information about The South Island Landless Natives Act (SILNA) and the work of Te Kooti Whenua Māori and updating the lists of potential owners for the four remaining SILNA Blocks Hāwea-Wanaka, Whakapoai, Port Adventure and Toitoi, please see our SILNA page.
TAKE NOTICE that Philip Seymour has made application to the Māori Land Court at Te Waipounamu for a meeting of assembled owners seeking a partition of the Otonga 3 block.
The historical list of owners has a written note recording that the block was a state
forest,11 which may have been a mistake and the cause of the land record falling
through the cracks.
