The title shows their company, Whakaari Trustee, as the registered landowner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Companies Office records show three shareholders: James Buttle of Shortland St in Auckland CBD, Andrew Buttle of Greenhithe and Peter Buttle of Mission Bay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They each own a third of the shares in the company giving them an equal and undivided third of the island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
