Since the passing of Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993, our role is to:
promote the retention of Māori land in the hands of its owners, whānau and hapū
facilitate the occupation, development and use of Māori land
ensure that decisions made about Māori land are fair and balanced taking into account the needs of all the owners and their beneficiaries.
In the past the Housing Corporation, and its replacement Housing New Zealand, have been prepared to finance the building of dwellings on Māori land by taking security over the house, provided that the borrower can obtain a licence to occupy from the owners or trustees, where the land is held in trust, for a term of at least 21 years.
