114: Notices in relation to Māori land

You could also call this:

“Rules for sending notices about Māori land”

When you need to send notices about Māori land under this Act, you must follow the rules in Part 10 of Te Ture Whenua Maori Act 1993. These rules tell you how to properly give notices to the owners of Māori land. However, there’s a special rule for invitations to comment. If you’re asking the owners to give their thoughts, you can only give them up to 40 extra working days to respond. This is different from the usual rule in section 181(4) of Te Ture Whenua Maori Act 1993. The Minister or panel in charge can change this rule if they need to.
