After 18 months of hearings in Rotorua, 15 applications concerning the administration and utilisation of Utuhina No.3H No’s 2 & 3 Subdivision F will shortly be completed. The major ownership of the land (which has an area of 1.4011 ha situated in Whittaker Road, Rotorua) has been held since 1968 in a long-term testamentary trust for eight of the testator’s children and their descendants.
The matter was heard in the Aotea Māori Land Court, by Judge A H C Warren and Dr Ruakere Hond, in Whanganui on 1 and 2 September 2022 in both languages and with the aid of a te reo Māori interpreter.
