Because the work of the Māori Land Court is highly regulated by the governing legislation and rules of the Court, private mediators will need to be mindful that many settlement agreements will need formal orders of the Court. For example, a private mediation appointed by consent under the Act, cannot create an outcome whereby the parties have agreed to a change of status from Māori Land to General Land in their mediated agreement and expect that to be rubber stamped by the Court.
Where required,
information provided in this application will be included in resulting orders of the Court.

There are still enforcement issues with this process including the inability to bind third parties who are not privy to the arbitration agreement (such as banks where an order is sought freezing funds). The highlight of the Conference was hearing from His Royal Highness, Naruhito, the Crown Prince of Japan, who opened the conference.
For the Māori Land Court, our focus is on being able to progress the successions as quickly as we can in order to update the lists of successors so that meetings of successors can be called.
The
Court may, if it cannot otherwise address those concerns, order that the application be reheard.
