Section 94 of the Maori Fisheries Act states that:
“The purpose of Te Wai Maori Trust is to hold and manage the trust funds on trust for and on behalf of the benefi ciaries under the Deed of Settlement, in order to advance Maori interests in freshwater fisheries, but not in a manner that could adversely affect the charitable status (if any) of the Trust.” (emphasis added).
