Why were so many Motueka societies removed at once?
They were not removed individually. The Incorporated Societies Act 2022 gave every existing society until 5 April 2026 to reregister, and everything that had not done so came off the register together the next day — in Motueka and everywhere else in New Zealand.

Every kind, but community or residents societys are the largest single group among the 6 removed in Motueka. Clubs, churches, residents associations and cultural societies all appear on the list.
Can a Motueka society still be restored?
Yes. Restoration stays open until 6 April 2032 for any of the 6 societies listed here, provided the application comes from someone who was an officer or member on the day it was removed.
