The judgment concerns an application made by Donna Pokere Phillips and the late James Phillips and involves whenua at Ōuri 1A3, and specifically the Whare on that whenua.
Disputes can delay whānau connecting to and using whenua. Parties in a dispute can work with a mediator and include tikanga as a way to resolve the dispute outside of the courtroom.

NO.
The MLC operates under the provisions of Te Ture Whenua
Māori Act 1993 (‘the Act’).
Trustees1 are bound by Te Ture Whenua Māori Act and the
Trusts Act 2019.
The whenua was out of Māori hands
for generations. Now those descendants have come together to reconnect, with each
other, with their whakapapa, and with the whenua.
