The government tabled the Land Adjudication Bill 2025 and the Land Registration Bill 2025 in the House Of Assembly earlier this month. These pieces of legislation are intended to introduce major land reforms to the country.
Prime Minister, the Hon. Philip Davis addressed a group of stakeholders at a land reform forum held at the Breezes Resort on Wednesday.
Mr. Davis told attendees, “we moving from an outdated deed based system to a modern title based registry. Every land parcel will receive a unique identification number, owners will be issued legal certificates that serve as indisputable proof of ownership. Adjudicators, supported by teams on the ground will visit communities, hear claims, assess evidence and resolve disputes through an independent land tribunal. Once claims are settled the land can be officially registered and secured. This means no more overlapping claims, no more land locked in legal limbo, no more families unable to access mortgages and no more generations waiting to inherit land they should already own.”
