Following the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi in 1840, the Crown negotiated 10 large-scale purchases of land from Ngāi Tahu whereby 345,000 acres of land, almost the entire land base of the iwi, was sold for £14,750.

WHAT IS THIS FORM FOR?
Use this form when transferring interests in Māori Land by sale or gift between owners in the same block, owners and
their children or owners and any other member of the preferred class of alienee.
A solution has been found, however, in the formation of whānau trusts for each of the eight children with agreed exclusive use areas both for themselves and also for the other owners of the block.

pation Order over the Māori freehold land or General Land owned by Māori named above as the site for a house.

A mortgage or loan may be acquired by:
the sole owner of a Māori landblock
all the owners of a Māori landblock acting together
the trustees of a Māori landblock who are empowered to raise finance against the block, or
a Māori Incorporation which holds Māori land.
This is why the value of each pre-amalgamation block is so important. The benefits of an amalgamation are:
the creation of one large block of land with common ownership
it enables the land to be used and managed as one block rather than many
no consent is needed under the Resource Management Act 1991 , and
there’s no requirement forland contributions for roads, reserves or public use or access.
