Abstract

This study examined the existing legal framework for mobilizing, distributing, and utilizing customary land revenue in Ghana. It combined a review of the regulatory framework on land revenue management and face-to-face interviews with Officers of the Administrator of Stool Lands with the view to identifying the gaps inherent in these regulations. The study found that the lack of legislative clarity on the mobilization and application of stool land revenue has been responsible for the misappropriation of funds by beneficiaries. Legislative reform is recommended to remedy the inherent gaps in the land revenue management regime in Ghana.
加纳传统土地收入管理的政策和立法差距:来自加纳阿散蒂地区的新问题
本研究审查了加纳现有的调动、分配和利用习惯土地收入的法律框架。它结合了对土地收入管理监管框架的审查和与斯托尔土地管理局官员的面对面访谈,以确定这些法规中固有的差距。研究发现,由于缺乏关于调动和应用粪便土地收入的立法明确性,受益人挪用了资金。建议进行立法改革,以弥补加纳土地收入管理制度中固有的差距。

期刊介绍: Survey Review is an international journal that has been published since 1931, until recently under the auspices of the Commonwealth Association of Surveying and Land Economy (CASLE). The journal is now published for Survey Review Ltd and brings together research, theory and practice of positioning and measurement, engineering surveying, cadastre and land management, and spatial information management. All papers are peer reviewed and are drawn from an international community, including government, private industry and academia. Survey Review is invaluable to practitioners, academics, researchers and students who are anxious to maintain their currency of knowledge in a rapidly developing field.
