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.

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.

Hei whakakapi i tēnei tauākitanga, ka mutu awau me ngā kupu o te waiata o Te Kooti Whenua Māori: Whakatutukihia ngā herenga, whītikitikiria ki te ture, kei konei ngā tūmanako, kei konei ngā wawata, ka tau te mauri o te Tipuna Whare, ka tau te Aio o te iwi e. Dr C L Fox CHIEF JUDGE

whakatūria, me whai i te tikanga.
