Abstract

The centrepiece of the Law on Land Reform is the creation of Special Land Funds administered by local authorities, for the assignment of user rights thereon, including, in particular, lease rights, to individuals and concerns. Private ownership of land is contemplated only as a result of the disbanding of collective enterprises (art. 14), but it is the stated policy of the Republic of Tajikistan not to restore ownership of land formerly held by "ancestors" and religious institutions (art. 2.2).
