Understanding Land Tenure Law - Commentary & Legislation (Paperback)

Understanding Land Tenure Law contains a commentary on land tenure law in South Africa together with the three key pieces of legislation: the Land Reform (Labour Tenants) Act, the Extension of Security of Tenure Act and the Prevention of Illegal Eviction from Unlawful Occupation of Land Act.

The text explains key definitions in the law and provides useful, practical guidelines on land rights disputes. Understanding Land Tenure Law also sets out the nature and scope of legal protection available to occupiers of land and labour tenants, with a section on access to the courts, including the Land Claims Court.

This book was developed by Cheadle, Thomson and Haysom Inc under the auspices of the Department of Land Affairs' Legal Services Project of the Land Rights Management Facility.
