THE Minister of Agriculture, Water and Land Reform, Calle Schlettwein, has urged the Henties Bay Town Council to create land tenure schemes for low-income earners under the Flexible Land Tenure Act (4 of 2012).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Schlettwein made this appeal at the Land Development Conference in Henties Bay, explaining that the Ministry of Agriculture, Water and Land Reform is overseeing the Flexible Land Tenure Act, which aims to provide affordable security of tenure to residents of informal settlements and expedite urban land delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n

“This is an innovative idea by the Government to provide land titles to informal residents. It is a pro-poor project, targeting people who live in informal settlements and low-income communities. The Flexible Land Tenure System is aimed at providing affordable security of tenure to informal settlement residents and accelerating urban land delivery,” the minister said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Schlettwein stressed that the goal is to provide assets to poor and vulnerable citizens who otherwise could never afford land. However, he said, such a land tenure system can only be established on land within municipalities, towns, village councils, and settlement areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I am therefore appealing to the Henties Bay Town Council to discuss the concept of establishing schemes under the Flexible Land Tenure Act so that low-income earners can be provided with land tenure. I trust that the Council will pass a resolution towards that end and forward it to my office for implementation,” Schlettwein encouraged.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
