What to file with your application
You should file documents in support of your case. For
example, for an application for succession, you’ll need a
death certificate, any grant of administration (grant of
probate2 or letters of administration3) or the original will,
minutes of a whānau meeting if a whānau trust is required,
and consents of the proposed trustees.
Because Māori land can have so many owners, creating a trust can be an efficient way to make decisions about the whenua. The members of the trust or 'trustees' are appointed to make decisions that protect the whenua and benefit all landowners, also known as 'beneficiaries' of the trust.
