LAND LAW REFORMS: FROM COLONIAL BONDAGE TO TRUE INDEPENDENCE


PRESS  RELEASE 03rd   SEPTEMBER 2020

MINISTRY  OF LANDS AND NATURAL RESOURCES



It must  be acknowledged    that  present   difficulties   encountered    by the Government    and  the  people  of Vanuatu   with  regards   to land  related laws are  closely  entangled   with  our  colonial  past.   Most  of the  initial land  related   laws in Vanuatu   were  meant  to be transitional    to carry the  country   from  colonialism   to independence    in 1980.
