Policy on land acquisition, compensation, resettlement and livelihood support from legal perspectives of the Central Government System

Abstract

Compensation, support, and resettlement when the State acquires land is one of the important issues in state management of land, directly affecting the legal rights and interests of land users. The 2013 Constitution and the 2013 Land Law have innovative content to rationally allocate, economically and effectively exploit land resources, ensuring harmony of interests between the State, people and businesses. The 2013 Land Law stipulates 33 articles on land recovery, compensation, support and resettlement (Chapter VI). Immediately, the Government issued documents detailing land acquisition, compensation, resettlement and livelihood support. The State acquires land for defense and security purposes; socio-economic development for national and public interests on the principles of openness, transparency and democracy. The article focuses on analyzing directions for innovating and perfecting mechanisms and policies on land acquisition, compensation, resettlement and livelihood support in Resolution 19/NQ-TW and legal regulations on compensation policies.
