The Māori Land Court is notifying all owners of the above block about the following hui:
WHENUA: Lot 26 Reserve 873 (199 Tuahiwi Rd)
DATE: Thursday 27 February
TIME: 10 am
VENUE: Māori Land Court
20 Lichfield Street
Christchurch
Kaupapa:

in future....
The MLC operates under the provisions of Te Ture Whenua
Māori Act 1993 (‘the Act’).
This factsheet deals only with the transfer of shares held in
land that has multiple ownership (that is, undivided shares).
If you are wanting to convert Māori customary land into freehold land, you can apply to the Court under section 132 of Te Ture Whenua Māori Act. Only a small number of customary land blocks remain in Aotearoa New Zealand and they total less than 700 hectares.
While individual titles according to shareholding remains the means by which Māori freehold land is administered under Te Ture Whenua Maori Act 1993, the Act has resulted in an improved approach to Māori aspirations for their land.
