In the English version, Māori are said to have ceded
the sovereignty of New Zealand to Britain; Māori give the Crown an exclusive right to buy lands they
wish to sell, and, in return, are guaranteed full rights of ownership of their lands, forests, fisheries and

Some Māori land titles have a majority of owners who cannot or will not succeed to
their ownership interest despite attempts to encourage them to succeed.
