(1) For the purpose of providing for payment of the cost of the survey of any Maori land, the Registrar may serve on the Māori Trustee a notice (in this section referred to as a survey notice) setting out the description of the land concerned and the amount or estimated amount of the costs of the survey, and requiring the Māori Trustee to reserve that amount or the appropriate proportion thereof from any money held by the Māori Trustee for the owners of the land or any of them, whether the money so held is derived from the alienation of that land or otherwise.
(2) On receipt of any survey notice under subsection (1), the Māori Trustee shall, in accordance with the terms of the notice, reserve any money held for the owners of the land specified in the notice and shall, on the request of the Registrar, apply the money so reserved to the costs of survey of that land.
(3) If at the time of service of a survey notice the Māori Trustee does not hold for the owners of the land specified in the notice or any of them sufficient money to meet the amount payable in respect of their several interests in the land, the Māori Trustee shall reserve to the extent necessary any money which may, subsequent to the service of the notice, be paid to the Māori Trustee for those owners until the requisite amount is paid.
