The purpose of the National Pänui / Te Pänui ä Motu is
to provide notice to interested parties of hearings being
conducted in, and applications received by, the MäoriLand
Court.
Successors at this hui may consider alternative redress options, if applicable. They will also be able to vote on whether they want to receive the land back as Māori or Generalland, and how that land will be held.
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
other possessions; and Māori are given the rights and privileges of British subjects.
The MāoriLand Court In 2003, the Minister of Māori Affairs applied to the MāoriLand Court for an inquiry pursuant to s 29 TTWMA as to successors to the four remaining SILNA blocks.
The Act also refers togeneralland owned by Māori.
