12 giug 1905 anni - Maori Land Boards - created

Descrizione:

Under the Maori Land Settlement Act passed in 1905, the Maori Land Councils were replaced by Maori Land Boards. The new legislation acknowledged, in effect, that the voluntary leasing policy had not met Crown objectives. Replacement measures included the Maori Land Boards' overseeing the renewal of large-scale Crown purchasing of Maori land in four Maori Land Districts. The other two, Taitokerau and Tairawhiti, hosted very strong tribal sentiments against selling land, and to avoid conflict the Act spared them from Crown purchase attempts.
