Résumé

Amendments relative to the allotment of all extinct mataqali land in accordance with the provisions of the Native Land Trust (Amendment) Act. “Native land" now means land which is neither State (formerly Crown) land nor the subject of a State (formerly Crown) grant nor native grant but includes: (a) all vacant land including such land declared under section 19; (b) all land set aside by proclamation under section 18 of the Native Land Trust Act; and (c) all extinct mataqali land vested in the Board under section 19 of the Native Land Trust Act;". Lands marked out and defined under subsection (1) of section 19 must be: (a) declared by the Minister by notice in the Gazette to be vacant lands under the control of the Board; and (b) dealt with in all respects as native lands. Income arising from unalloted vacant lands vested in the Board under this section must be paid to the Fijian Affairs Board and used exclusively for the benefit of native Fijians in a manner and for purposes approved by the Minister on the advice of the Great Council of Chiefs.". Other provisions concern transfer of leases and contracts and registration of titles of lands owned by extinct mataqali.
