The reform of Te Ture Whenua Māori (and updating of the 1993 Act) will mean significant change for Māori land owners, including introducing a new governance framework in relation to developing and approving their own governance constitutions and appointment of kaitiaki (governors).

Our submission focuses on the duties and responsibilities of kaitiaki and their immunity from personal liability.
