Reform of the Cadastre
BACKGROUND:
• Title to land and other real rights not guaranteed by the State.
• Cadastral system is based on the principal of private law giving effect to statutory, case, and common law.
• It is the basis for investments of billions of rand per year and benefitting the previously disadvantaged sector of the population.
PROBLEM STATEMENT:
• The inability of the present system to accommodate the increase in volume.
• The need to ensure compatibility of systems.
• The demand for decentralization of services.
• The necessity for consolidating and rationalising diversified surveying and registration procedures.
• The need to provide registration capability for other forms of land tenure.
• The need to increase speed of delivery by interfacing with e-commerce models.
