The Government's reconsidering amending customary marine titles legislation following a landmark Supreme Court decision.

The court's rejected a Court of Appeal judgment from October last year as a narrow interpretation of criteria.

It's unanimously ruled applicants must use and occupy an area for customary rights to the foreshore and seabed, and maintain this use without substantial interruption.

Prime Minister Christopher Luxon told Mike Hosking it was a quick decision from the court.

He says it actually takes a lot of time to go through those rulings and understand the nature of them.

Luxon says Justice Minister Paul Goldsmith will go through it and have more to say in due course.

The Prime Minister is commending the Navy's handling of the fall-out from the Manawanui sinking.

An inquiry has found the sinking was the result of a series of human errors, including the autopilot being left on.

Luxon has confirmed he's discussed potential compensation with the Samoan Government after locals were prevented from fishing in the area.

The Prime Minister has laughed off a question from Hosking about whether Navy personnel should have known what autopilot was.

He says it's incredibly frustrating for everyone involved, but the Navy has done a good job of fronting.
