The Agriculture, Land Reform, and Rural Development Minister Thoko Didiza says government is ready to deal with the contentious issue of national communal land tenure. CommunalLandSummit

The Inter-Ministerial Committee on Land Reform will on Friday host a two-day summit on the issue in Boksburg, east of Johannesburg.

The need for the current land reform programme arose from the racially discriminatory laws and practices which were in place for the largest part of the twentieth century, especially those related to land ownership. Didiza says, “We’ll be able to have consensus about the nature of policies that we require for communal land tenure as well as the legal framework that must support them. That will enable us to actually have a better lend administration process in communal areas.
