Communal Land Rights Act, 2004 (Act No. 11 of 2004)

Chapter 7 : Land Administration Committee

21. Establishment of land administration committee

 

1) A community must establish a land administration committee which may only be disestablished if its existence is no longer required in terms of this Act.

 

2) If a community has a recognised traditional council, the powers and duties of the land administration committee of such community may be exercised and performed by such council.

 

3) In the exercise of the powers and the performance of the duties of a land administration committee as contemplated in subsection (2), a traditional council must ensure that the composition of its membership satisfies the requirements of section 22(4) and (5).

 

4) When a traditional council acts as a land administration committee as contemplated in this section, its functional area of competence is the administration of land affairs and not traditional leadership as contemplated in Schedule 4 to the Constitution.

 

5) Any provision in this Act which refers, or is applicable, to a traditional council is intended to establish norms and standards and a national policy with regard to communal land rights, to effect uniformity across the nation.
