The Council of Ministers announced the establishment of a new working group to reform the settlement of land disputes.
An interdepartmental working group will be created to establish new procedures around land disputes, announced the Council of Ministers in a statement dated Thursday, August 27.
"This group has the responsibility to prepare a circular on procedures for resolving problems on the villagers who live in an anarchic fashion in big cities, Phnom Penh and other towns of provinces," the statement said.
According to him, these new procedures will be created from the Land Law and other existing legislation.
"The purpose of this circular will be able to find a satisfactory solution for landowners and occupiers before any discharge, it is indicated.
During the previous Parliament, a party committee responsible for resolving land disputes had already been put in place, a sign of good will of government to achieve in all cases to a negotiated solution. However, this committee, which includes members of the CPP, SRP and Funcinpec, has hardly been tapped and has given almost no evidence of its effectiveness.
The amicable resolution of land conflicts generally occur when the Prime Minister directly, or one of its advisers involved in the case and ordered to find a solution on a case by case basis.
