Examples of what could be considered ‘simple’ trust matters
include:
• forming a whānau trust for a single owner’s interests or
shares; or
• terminating a kaitiaki trust for a minor when the person
reaches 20 years of age; or
• appointing a trustee to a whānau trust.
Occupation orders can
now be granted not only to the landowner or any person
entitled to succeed to their interest, but also to beneficiaries
of the whānau trust that holds a beneficial interest in the
land.
Within te ao Māori, rangatiratanga can embody the authority of a rangatira (a Chief) but importantly also
that of the people, being the whānau (family), hapū (sub-tribe) and iwi (tribe).
And importantly, the Court process provides a
timely opportunity for successors to discuss and agree to their interests being vested
in a whānau trust, which has the huge advantage of curtailing any further
fragmentation of interests.
