Most of the types of records in this class concern title reconstruction and
improvement processes under Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993 to facilitate the use and
occupation of the land by Māori landowners.
The class also encompasses all records to do with the use of land and with processes to change
Māori land titles since the inception of the Māori Land Court.
For more information,
please contact your local Mäori Land Court office.
