Lands Minister highlights priority tasks to address
The Minister for Lands, Housing and Survey, Hon. Polycarp Paea has outlined the Ministry’s key policy priority subjects as mandated by the Government’s 100-day programme.
These included the Customary Land Recording Program, the Greater Honiara Urban Development Strategy and Action Plan (GHUDSAP), and addressing illegal squatter Settlements around Honiara city.
Speaking in response to the Governor General’s Speech from the throne in Parliament, Minister Paea said these tasks are not easy but his Ministry is determined to achieve them in the next four years.
The Customary Land Recording program is the first program that aims to help tribal land-owning groups record their land and resources. This is important to minimize land disputes and to prepare land for development programs suitable for their land.
“This program is aimed at securing land ownership for traditional landholding groups while enabling them to utilize their land for investment and economic development,” Hon. Paea said.

A three days Land Valuers workshop organised by the Ministry of Lands, Housing and Survey (MLHS) with financial support of the Australian Government commenced today - gathering qualified Valuers from across all Provinces.
The workshop is aimed at drawing out and determining the general unimproved land values for the rest of the country, based on the price any average willing buyer and seller would agree upon as a transfer price for unimproved land.
Co-facilitated by the Commissioner of Lands Alan McNeil and Valuer General Helena Joyce Siosi, the workshop followed on from a similar workshop in 2020 with participants examining maps and determining what they believe to be fair land value across the country.
