   ...in Part 12 for the administration of Māori land trusts unless a case falls under one of the exceptions we outline below. In this case, it is the express provision of section 222 which prevails over section 237. [43] While we appreciate the careful application of this authority, we consider that the principles set out by this Court in Tito – Mangakahia 2B2 do not apply here. In Tito – Mangakahia 2B2 the Māori Land Court appointed the Māori Trustee as the responsible trustee...

   ...share with them the enjoyment of their reservation, be it a marae or a historical and scenic spot, for so long as respect !or the hosts and the reservation, is upheld. It appears that where restrictions as to user have been imposed, it has been to protect fishing grounds, ancient burial grounds or the like.

   ...presumably the Judge intended something similar in his case. [57] We heard no argument as to whether the interim orders should continue (and be made permanent) or should be discharged.

[58] In light of the fact the application for leave to appeal has been dismissed and the application for...

    ...technically speaking, the applicant was not obliged to notify the NZLS of her non-compliance with s 114 of the Act.

Alerting the NZLS to non-compliance with any particular provision of the Act or the Trust Account Regulations enables the resources of the NZLS inspectorate to be engaged to help th...
