Special Court Sitting
The following speci...
Disputes can delay whānau connecting to and using whenua. Whānau who agree to enter mediation to resolve disputes can do so out of court, pay no filing fee and can practice the tikanga of your whānau and hapū in that mediation.
Before you submit an application to the Court, make sure you have had a kōrero with your whānau. Kaitiaki whenua (land guardianship) is about the collective and the wellbeing of whenua, whānau and whakapapa.
Disputes can delay whānau connecting to and using whenua. Parties in a dispute can work with a mediator and include tikanga as a way to resolve the dispute outside of the courtroom.
An application was filed in the Court by Johnson Raumati, a
descendant of Mary Naera for a Judicial Conference under section 67 Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993.
The applicant filed the application to seek solutions to prevent the sale by Council and to secure the
future of the land for Mary’s whānau.
How does a mortgagee exercise power of mortgagee sale in relation to whenua Māori?
The practice note demystifies what can appear a complex subject, and support both whānau and lenders to improve access to finance for development activity on whenua Māori.
Our role as Te Kooti Whenua Māori is to facilitate and promote the retention and use of Māori land, and support whānau to occupy, develop and use their whenua.
Succession to Māori land interests can be complex for whānau
and for whāngai, and Māori land is often owned by members
of different whānau (with different views on whāngai
succession).
