COURSE OBJECTIVE |
The morning discussion will begin on the legal position of the State Authority and its discretionary power to dispose “state land” – either by way of alienation (freehold or leasehold) or otherwise than by alienation (via TOL, issuance of permits or reservation of land).
This will be followed by a discussion on the various types of land titles issued to landowners, express conditions, implied conditions and the impact on future development and land dealings. The concept of indefeasibility will be explained, and why “security of tenure” is important for economic growth.
Leading cases will be discussed and the importance of an assurance fund (which is not available in the country) will be explained.
The afternoon discussion will begin on the constitutional right to property (Article 13 of the Federal Constitution) and the right of the State Authority to acquire alienated land compulsorily under the Land Acquisition Act 1960.
This will be followed by a discussion on several provisions in that Act that set out the mandatory procedure of acquisition. Several leading and latest cases will be discussed, which provide answers whether some provisions in the Act are unconstitutional, and whether land acquisition can be challenged on the grounds of mala fide?
This course will conclude with a discussion on certain critical issues affecting Malay reserve land in the nine Malay State. |
