Résumé

The National Land Policy was adopted by Jamaica in 1997 as a national policy for the land sector. It establishes the framework needed for Jamaica to become more progressive, transparent and modern in its approaches to land and geographic information management systems, land administration and utilization, land resources and environmental management, and land development planning. The goals and objectives of this Policy are to ensure the sustainable, productive and equitable development, use and management of the country’s natural resources. The policy seeks to enhance the sector with interventions related to land information management systems; land resources and use; land titling, land tenure and access; acquisition, pricing and divestment of government owned-lands; taxation and incentives for property development; environmental and disaster management; legislation; and institutional framework and reform.
