Secondly, from 2020 to 2025 the Tribunal will substantially advance and complete kaupapa and contemporary claims.
As a result, from time to time the Māori Land Court receives applications to extend existing urupā, or to set aside Māori freehold land, or sometimes General land owned by Māori, as new urupā reservations.
Use this form to apply to the Court for an order vesting part or all of any Māori Land or General Land owned by Māori in an owner or a person entitled to succeed to an owner for the purpose of a house site or to confirm an existing house site (including a house that has already been built and is located on the land).
Where the relevant tikanga does not recognise a relationship that entitles whāngai to succeed, the Māori Land Court may issue a court order giving whāngai a lifetime right to receive income or grants from the land or the right to occupy the family home on the land, or both.
