SSUUMM MM AARRYY

The subproject “Rehabilitation and Upgrading of Phu Lam – Cai Lay 2 220kV Transmission line” is a component of the Transmission Efficiency Project (TEP). The subproject construction will be implemented in the areas of twenty three (23) communes under the management of seven (07) districts of Ho Chi Minh city and provinces of Long An and Tien Giang.

The subproject consists of three main works:

(i) Maintaining the original status from Phu Lam 500kV substation to tower G1 with 2,824 m in length;

(ii) stringing 23,627 m of wire on the towers of the Phu Lam – O Mon 500kV transmission line from tower G1 to G7;

(iii) upgrading the current 45,378 m single-circuit to a double-circuit from tower G7 to Cai Lay 220kV substation.

The route will be upgraded from single-circuit into double-circuit at tower G7 to Cai Lay 220kV substation, which will extend over the area of eighteen communes under the management of four districts of Long An and Tien Giang provinces as follows:

Long An province:

- Nhi Thanh and Binh Thanh communes of Thu Thua district;

- Huong Phu Tho commune, ward 2, 4, 6 and Khanh Hau ward of Tan An city;

Tien Giang province:

- Tan Huong, Tan Ly Tay, Tan Ly Dong, Tan Hiep, Than Cuu Nghia, Tam Hiep, Long Dinh, Nhi Binh and Diem Hy communes of the Chau Thanh district.

- Tan Hoi and Nhi My communes of Cai Lay district.

The proposed construction period of the subproject is twelve months (excluding period of clearance and compensation) as of the commencement date which is tentatively proposed in the second Quarter of 2014.

The subproject will affect 595 households (2,485 persons), five organizations, namely Vocational Training College of Long An province, Ly Tu Trong High school, Long An Teacher Training College, Tan Huong Industrial Zone and Vietnam Institute of Seed Sciences in eighteen communes of the four districts of Long An and Tien Giang provinces. However, due to the nature of this subproject being the upgrading works of the existing Phu Lam – Cai Lay 2 220kV transmission line; so the number of households directly affected by the subproject is only 126 households out of the above 595 households; these directly households will be considered for further compensation in this subproject due to their land being permanently acquired for construction of 126 new tower foundations. The remaining households only locate in the existing ROW and they shall comply with power safety regulations in the existing transmission line; and they will temporarily affect during the process of stringing wire. The area of permanently acquired land of the affected households ranges from 2.06% to 96.60% of the total land area that they possess. Details are as bellows:

- AHs with over 20% (or over 10% for vulnerable households) of cultivated land being permanently acquired: 66 households (290 persons)

- AHs with less than 20% (or less than 10% for vulnerable households) of cultivated land being permanently acquired: 47 households (208 persons)



- AHs with crops being permanently affected: 111 households (492 persons)

- AHs with cultivated land being temporarily affected: 595 households (2,485 persons)

- AHs with crops being temporarily affected: 446 households (1,867 persons)

Notes:

In the permanently acquired land for construction of tower foundations, there are five towers located in public land under the ownership of the Government; so there is no compensation for this land area. The data in this report excluded the land of these five towers.

Permanently acquired land area at tower foundation locations of the subproject is 38,828.2 m2, in which, cultivation land constitutes of 89.6% of total permanent acquisition land area and residential land 2.8% only.

Temporarily affected land area in the ROW of the subproject is 847,234 m2, in which, cultivation and residential land account for 82.9% and 17.1% respectively.

This resettlement plan is prepared based on the WB’s OP 4.12 Involuntary Resettlement (OP 4.12) and the Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF) of the Transmission Efficiency Project.

Land acquisition and compensation activities are expected to start in the first Quarter of 2014 with an estimated budget of 56,326,229,934 VND. The budget shall be reviewed and updated at the early stage of subproject implementation to ensure the compensation at replacement cost. Budget for RP’s implementation will be from reciprocal funds of EVNNPT.



1. INTRODUCTION

1.1. Transmission Efficiency Project (TEP)

1. The National Power Transmission Cooperation (NPT) is developing Efficient Transmission Project (TEP) with funding from the World Bank (WB). The Project Development Objective (PDO) for TEP is to support the implementation of an investment programs to increase capacity of Vietnam’s electricity transmission grid, improve efficiency and reliability of electricity services and strengthen the institutional capacity of the National Power Transmission Company. The direct beneficiary of the project would be Vietnam’s electricity transmission company NPT. Indirect beneficiaries would include all segments of population. They would benefit from: (i) Improved reliability, which will reduce unserved demand and the number and duration of power outages; and (ii) Increased energy efficiency, which will reduce overall costs and GHG emissions. The project would also bring direct temporary benefits for skilled and unskilled workers that would be employed for the construction of the project. The proposed project is comprised of the following three components:

(a) The Transmission Infrastructure Component will finance transmission lines and substations at voltage levels of 220kV and 500kV. The investments will target three areas that are key to the overall economic development of Vietnam, namely the Greater Hanoi Area, the Greater Ho Chi Minh City Area and the Mekong Delta. Investments at the 500kV level will help increase the transport capacity of the main 500kV trunk system while increasing its reliability. Investments at the 220kV level are aimed at increasing the capacity of the supply points to the distribution utilities and improve the reliability of the network that serves these points.

(b) The Smart Grid Component will support modernization of monitoring, control, and protection equipment in 500kV and 220kV substations to improve the reliability of the interconnected power system as a whole and of some bulk-supply points in the distribution network. Today, 60 percent of the faults in substations are a consequence of faulty operations of monitoring, control, and protection equipment. Aided by monitoring and control gear, protection equipment: (i) detects - among other things - the locations and intensity of faults and, based on such information, determines what equipment should be disconnected to protect the system from damage; and (ii) decides when disconnected equipment should be reconnected to ensure that interruptions in the provision of electricity services are minimized.

(c) The Capacity Building and Institutional Strengthening Component will contribute to the gradual development of NPT to become an independent transmission company with revenues from the application of cost-of-service regulation in the transmission sector. The steps to be supported in this operation include the definition of technical and financial performance indicators, the introduction of enterprise asset management systems and strategies.

Component No.1 and a part of component No.2 will be implemented by three Project Management Boards of EVNNPT; component No.3 and a part of component No.2 will be implemented by EVNNPT and Electricity Regulatory Authority of Vietnam (ERAV). In this project, the land acquisition is mainly in the subprojects of the component No.1. The RP of this subproject is prepared in accordance with the Resettlement Policy Framework for Transmission Efficiency Project.

2. IMPACTS OF THE SUBPROJECT

2.1. Determination of Subproject’s Impacts

2.1.1. Determination of Affected Area/Scope of the Subproject:

As mentioned earlier, the subproject extends over 23 communes/wards of Ho Chi Minh city and in provinces of Long An and Tien Giang. Economic and welfare conditions are diversified through the length of the route; most of the businesses being agricultural production, orchards, small business and other small-scale industrial households. The subproject is not located near or in the environmental sensitive areas such as: cultural heritage; natural reserves and their buffer zone; wetlands; forests and estuary etc. therefore the implementation of the subproject shall not impact the sensitive areas in environment. Other impacts of subproject are recognized and assessed as follows:

a) Impact on crossing infrastructure: The location of the transmission line shall affect some infrastructure works, houses, fields and gardens of residents during upgrading. However, at crossing locations, there are methods to ensure safety, minimize damages for activities of residents under ROW.

b) Impact on land acquisition: The total area of land that is permanently occupied is 39,088.75 m2. On average, a tower foundation requires an area of 312.71 m2. In centralized residential area, foundations will be coincidently constructed with the centerline of existing foundations to minimize land acquisition impact. The area of permanent occupied land at each location of foundation is very low in comparison with the farmland area; therefore, impact on society and economy due to compensation, land acquisition is not muchIn the project area, no physical relocation is required due to the subproject’s impacts. The sub-project only affects the following areas:

- Location of tower foundations of the upgrading transmission line.

- Temporarily impact in surrounding area of the tower foundation during the construction process.

- Temporarily affected area due to stringing wire with an average width of 22 meters, the route is only calculated at area of cultivation land. The land area can be affected from 1 to 2 months.

Temporary land acquisition for the access road in the construction is not necessary because the existing domestic roads, alleys, lanes and ROW shall be used in the construction period.

2.1.2. Determination of Affected People of the Subproject

a) Determination of Affected People and Eligbility Criteria

Subproject Affected People:

The Phu Lam – Cai Lay 2 T/L subproject has only impacts covered in paragraph 3a (items ii, iii) of OP 4.12. People directly affected by this sub-project include:

- Persons whose agricultural land will be affected (permanently or temporarily) by the Project;

- Persons whose residential land/houses will be affected (permanently or temporarily) by the Project;

- Persons whose leased-houses will be affected (permanently or temporarily) by the Project;



- Persons whose businesses, occupations. or places of work will be affected (permanently or temporarily) by the Project;

- Persons whose crops (annual and perennial)/ trees will be affected in part or in total by the Project;

Eligbility Criteria:

The eligibility for obtaining entitlements to compensation is generally built upon three concepts relating to asset ownership as follows:

(i) Those who have formal legal rights to land (including customary and traditional rights recognized under the laws of the country) – in the instance, it is also useful to document how long they have been using the land or the assets associated with it;

(ii) Those who do not have formal legal rights to land at the time the census begins but have a claim to such land or assets, provided that such claims are recognized under the laws of the country or become recognized through a process identified in the resettlement plan;

(iii) Those who have no recognizable legal right or claim to the land they are occupying.

Persons covered under (i) and (ii) are provided compensation for the land they lose, and other assistance. Persons covered under (iii) are provided resettlement assistance in lieu of compensation for the land they occupy, and other assistance, as necessary, to achieve the objectives set out in this policy, if they occupy the project area prior to a cut-off date established by the borrower and acceptable to the Bank. Persons who encroach on the area after the cut-off date are not entitled to compensation or any other form of resettlement assistance. All persons included in (i), (ii), or (iii) are provided compensation for loss of owned or used assets other than land.

b) Number of Affected People or Organizations or Households

1. Affected Organization

- Vocational training college of Long An province (305.25 m2 housing land at the dormitory are permanently affected.);

- Ly Tu Trong High School (305.25 m2 permanently affected);

- Long An training teacher college (369 m2 permanently affected);

- Tan Huong Industrial Zone (1,152 m2 of agricultural land permanently affected);

- Vietnam Institute of Seed Sciences (305.25 m2 of agricultural land, fruit – tree land permanently affected).



2. Affected Households and People

According to the survey result, 595 households (2,485 people) are affected by the subproject in which 113 households (498 people) have impact on land of . The level of land acquisition impact (at household level) ranges from 2.06% to 96.60% of their total landholding area. Affected people include:

- People whose land is permanently revoked for tower foundation area;

- People whose cultivated land or residential land are affected temporarily in ROW;

- People whose perennial trees and /or crops are temporarily affected in ROW;

- People whose perennial trees and / or crops are temporarily affected in ROW.

None of the affected households fall into the definition of vulnerable groups as defined in the RPF of the TEP. All households losing more than 70% have another source of income from non-agricultural activities. Their residental land is not affected by the subproject. Main activities of this subproject is to rehabilitate the current transmission line. Tower foundations will be constructed in the same place of the existing tower foundation to minimize loss of land. In this subproject, there is no physical relocation required. The result is presented in the following tables (see details in Appendix 5: The inventory of people affected by the subproject):

Houses and works existing in the ROW have the height from 2.5 to 11 m, the average height is 4.8 m. The transmission line is designed to cross residential areas with the hanging height that ensure the lowest point of transmission line at maximum sag status to natural ground



surface not less than 18 m. When Phu Lam – Cai Lay 2 220kV transmission line is rehabilitated, upgraded; it must be ensured that the distance from any part of houses, works within the ROW to the nearest line at maximum sag situation is not less than 6 m. It should alsobe ensured that houses and works existing in the ROW with their roof and earthing being renovated are permitted to exist under the corridor of 220kV power grid. Therefore, the subproject will not cause relocation, resettlement for the existing houses. Furthermore, when the transmission line is rehabilitated and upgraded, the hanging height is elevated, it ensures more safety for houses in the ROW and increases more space of housing development.

3.1.2. World Bank’s Policies

The primary objective of the World Bank’s OP 4.12 is to explore all alternatives to avoid or at least minimize involuntary resettlement. Where resettlement is unavoidable, the living standards of displaced persons should be restored or improved relative to those conditions that prevailed prior to the subproject. The policy applies to the taking of land and other assets when land acquisition results in the loss of shelter, the loss of all or part of productive assets, or access to them, and the loss of income sources or other means of livelihood.

(Main characteristics of OP 4.12 are detailed in Resettlement Policy Framework of Efficiency Transmission Project).

3.1.3. Compatibility between policies of Government and the World Bank and necessary exemptions

Current Laws, Decrees and Regulations bring the Government of Viet Nam resettlement policies and practices to be more consistent with the World Bank’s resettlement policies. The differences between the Government’s Laws and Decrees and World Bank Policy with regard to resettlement and compensation, and how to address these gaps are shown in table 3.1.

Policy objectives

DPs should be assisted in their efforts to improve their livelihoods and standards of living or at least to restore them, in real terms, to pre-displacement levels or to levels prevailing prior to the beginning of project implementation, whichever is higher

Resettlement site and its infrastructure should have equal or better development conditions than the existing one.

Livelihoods and income sources will be restored in real terms, at least, to the pre-displacement levels or to levels prevailing prior to the beginning of project implementation, whichever is higher.

Support for affected households who have no recognizable legal right or claim to the land they are occupying

Financial assistance to all project affected persons to achieve the policy objective (to improve their livelihoods and standards of living or at least to restore them, in real terms, to pre-displacement levels or to levels prevailing prior to the beginning of project implementation, whichever is higher)

Financial assistance provided at different levels depending on the “legal” status of affected persons

Financial assistance of an agreed amount will be given to all DPs, regardless of their legal status, until their livelihoods and standards of living restore in real terms, at least, to pre-displacement levels.



Compensation for illegal structures

Compensation at full cost for all structures regardless of legal status of the DP’s land and structure.

Provided to cover the new structure costs. Depending on the “illegality status” attributed , covering between 80% and 0% of the total costs

Compensation at full replacement cost will be given for all structures affected, regardless of legal status of the land and structure.

Compensation

Methods for determining compensation rates

Compensation for lost land and other assets should be paid at full replacement costs,

Compensation for lost assets is calculated at price close to transferring the assets in local markets or the cost of newly-built structures. Provincial governments are granted to annually set up compensation prices for different categories of assets

Independent appraiser identifies replacement costs for all types of assets affected. Provincial government will use this assessment to establish the compensation rates at full replacement.

Compensation for loss of income sources or means of livelihood

Loss of income sources should be compensated (whether or not the affected persons must move to another location)

Assistance in respect of income loss is given only for registered businesses. For affected persons losing agricultural land, additional financial support will be provided.

All income losses are to be compensated and, where necessary to achieve the objectives of the policy, development assistance in addition to compensation will be provided.

Compensation for indirect impact caused by land or structures taking

It is good practice for the borrower to undertake a social assessment and implement measures to minimize and mitigate adverse economic and social impacts, particularly upon poor and vulnerable groups.

Not addressed. Socio-economic assessment has been undertaken and measures identified and being implemented to minimize and mitigate adverse impacts, particularly upon poor and vulnerable groups.

Grievance redress mechanism

Grievance redress mechanism should be independent

The same governmental body makes decisions on compensation and resettlement, and also handles grievances at the first step;

Independent Grievance and Redress mechanisms are to be established, built on the existing governmental system, with monitoring by an independent monitor

Monitoring & Evaluation

Internal and independent monitoring are required

There is no explicit requirements on monitoring, including both internal and independent (external) monitoring

Both internal and external (independent) monitoring is to be regularly maintained (on a monthly basis for internal and bi-annual basis for independent monitoring). An end-of-project report will be done to confirm whether the objectives of OP 4.12 were achieved.

Required Waivers

To satisfy WB OP/BP 4.12 policy on Involuntary Resettlement, articles in the laws and regulations of Vietnam that do not guarantee the APs’ right to compensation at replacement costs, or eligibility articles that do not extend the right of being restored and/or assisted to households without valid land papers, or otherwise limit the compensation required by WB OP/BP 4.12, will not apply. The requirements of WB OP/BP 4.12 will fully apply in all cases. This is in accordance with Decree No.38/2013/ND-CP, which states that in case of “discrepancy between any provision in an international treaty on Official Development Assistance, to which the Socialist Republic of Viet Nam is a signatory, and the Vietnamese Law, the provision in the international treaty on ODA shall take precedence” (Article 6, Article 7).

3.2. Principle of Compensation Applied for the Subproject

3.2.1. General Principles

All DPs who have assets within or reside within the area of project land-take before the cut-



off date are entitled to compensation or assistance for their losses. Those who have lost their income and/or subsistence will be eligible for livelihood rehabilitation assistance, based on the criteria of eligibility defined by the project and in consultation with the DPs. If, by the end of the project, livelihoods have been shown not to be restored to pre-project levels, additional measures will be provided.

- The compensation rates will be determined based on the results of independent land/assets appraisal in a timely and consultative fashion. All fees and taxes on land and/or house transfers will be waived or otherwise included in a compensation package for land and structures/houses or businesses. The local authorities will ensure that DPs choosing relocation on their own obtain, without additional cost, the necessary property titles and official certificates commensurate with similar packages provided to those who choose to move to the project resettlement sites.

- Land will be compensated “land for land” or in cash according to the DP’s choice whenever possible. The choice of land for land must be offered to those losing 20% or more of their productive land. If land is not available, the borrower must assure itself that this is indeed the case. Those losing 20% or more of their land will have to be assisted to restore their livelihood. The same principles apply for the poor and vulnerable people losing 10% or more of their productive landholding.

- DPs that prefer “land for land” will be provided with land plots with the equivalent productive capacity for lost lands or a combination of land (a standard land plot) in a new residential area nearby for residential land, and cash adjustment for the difference between their lost land and the land plots provided. The resettlement area will be planned properly and implemented in consultation with the DPs. All basic infrastructures, such as paved roads, sidewalks, drainage, water supply, and electricity and telephone lines, will be provided.

- DPs that prefer “cash for land” will be compensated in cash at the full replacement cost. These DPs will be assisted in rehabilitating their livelihoods and making their own arrangements for relocation.

- Compensation for all residential, commercial, or other structures will be offered at the replacement cost, without any depreciation of the structure and without deduction for salvageable materials. Structures shall be evaluated individually. Any rates set by category of structure must use the highest value structure in that group (not the lowest).

- The DPs will be provided full assistance (including a transportation allowance) for transportation of personal belongings and assets, in addition to the compensation at replacement cost of their houses, lands, and other properties.

- Plans for acquisition of land and other assets and provision of rehabilitation measures will be carried out in consultation with the DPs (with particular attention to vulnerable DPs), to minimize the disturbance and shorten the resettlement transition period. The rehabilitation measures will be provided to the DP's prior to the expected start-up date of works in the project sites.

- If, by the end of the project, livelihoods have been shown not to be restored to pre-project levels, additional measures should be considered.

- Financial services (such as loans or credits) will be provided to DPs, if necessary. The installment amounts and the schedule of payments will be within the repayment capacity of DPs.

- Additional efforts, such as economic rehabilitation assistance, training and other forms of assistance, should be provided to DPs losing income sources, especially to vulnerable groups



in order to enhance their future prospects toward livelihood restoration and improvement.

- The previous level of community services and resources, encountered prior to displacement, will be maintained or improved for resettlement areas.

- Contractors can only commence civil works after (i) the governmental competent agency has satisfactorily completed compensation payments and rehabilitation assistances in accordance to approved RP for sub-project; (ii) already-compensated DPs have cleared the area in a timely manner; and (iii) the area is free from any encumbrances.

3.2.2. Policies for compensation, Support and Resettlement Applied to the Subproject

In addition to the direct compensation for damages in accordance with the policy framework of World Bank and policy framework of Vietnam mentioned at the above item 3.1.1, APs have the right to receive allowance as stipulated in the Decree No.197/2004/ND-CP, Decree No.69/2009/ND-CP, and Decree No.81/2009/ND-CP. Allowances/ supports include:

- Support in renovation of roof and earthing for houses in ROW

Houses, accessory structure for accommodation, or part thereof located in the ROW, support shall be granted for renovation of roof and earthing to ensure safety conditions for existing in the ROW as stipulated by the Decree No.81/2009/ND-CP.

- Other rehabilitation measures

In addition to aforementioned, any AP exposed to any impact other than those considered to be minor, will have a range of programs to support their full livelihood restoration and assure asset compensation at replacement values; i.e. either at a replacement value for each structure or using the value of the most expensive structures as a bench mark in case those structures are categorized by “types”.

Entitlement matrix: Refer to Appendix 2: the Entitlement Matrix.



4. COMPENSATION, ASSISTANCE AND RESETTLEMENT

4.1. Compensation

Cut-off date will be proposed in the Quarter II of 2014; the cut-off date of the subproject will be officially notified to affected people by relevant local authorities. Damages will be inventoried in detail after the cut-off date to implement compensation, resettlement assistance under the stipulations. The impacts listed in this report is totaled up in line with the preliminary survey data in investment phase, its data will be used to prepare plan and cost estimate for compensation. All damages and compensation costs will be made accurate in phase of compensation and land acquisition.

Persons who encroach and move into the area that proposed to be affected area after the cut-off date will not be entitled to compensation and resettlement. They will be requested to dismantle affected structures, cut trees or harvest crops for land clearance of the project; however, they will not have to pay any fine. The cut-off date and terms “no compensation for the encroachers” will be announced clearly to People’s Committee of commune level by the project’s owner.

Replacement cost: In this subproject, the damages are only lands, perennial trees and crops. Survey result has shown that transmission line in the sub-project will be built in rural areas; most of the land is only for agricultural production (rice plants, crops) and gardening with long term stability. There is no trading of land, plants and crops (mostly land is transferred from the owners to their children and relatives) and through consultation with local authorities (Thu Thua, Tan An city of Long An province and Chau Thanh district, Cai Lay of Tien Giang province), compensation prices of land, plants and crops will be applied according to the price regulated by the People’s Committee of province). It is based on the following Decisions:

- Decision No.07/2010/QD-UBND dated 01/3/2010 of Long An province on the issuance of regulations of compensation, assistance and resettlement when the State claims land in Long An province;

- Decision No.17/2011/QD-UBND on 24/6/2011 regarding on amendment, supplement some of Articles of Decision on compensation, assistance and resettlement when the State claims land in Long An province;

5.2. Information Disclosure

Per requirement of Bank’s policy, the Vietnamese version of this draft report was publically disclosed at subproject communes, SPPMB, and VDIC of the World Bank office in Hanoi (Jan. 2014). English version was also disclosed in InfoShop of the World Bank in Washington D.C. Final versions (English and Vietnamese) will also be re-disclosed at project sites, SPPMB, VDIC and InfoShop.

5.3. Complaints and Grievances

DPs are entitled to the complaints regarding their interests and responsibilities in the Project implementation including but not limited to entitlements, compensation policy, unit prices, land acquisition, resettlement and other entitlements related to the recovery support programs. Complaints can also concern issues related to construction safety and nuisances caused by construction. Grievance procedures should be affordable and accessible procedures for third party settlement of disputes arising from resettlement; such grievance mechanisms should take into account the availability of judicial recourse and community and traditional dispute settlement mechanisms.

The mechanism of complaint and grievances resolution steps are as below:

First Stage - At Commune People’s Committee (CPC)

An aggrieved DP may bring his/her complaint to any member of the CPC, in writing or verbally. It is incumbent upon said member of CPC to notify the CPC about the complaint. The CPC will meet personally with the aggrieved DP and will have 15 days following the lodging of the complaint to resolve it. The CPC secretariat is responsible for documenting and keeping file of all complaints that it handles.

Second Stage - At District People’s Committee (DPC)

If after 15 days the aggrieved DP does not hear from the CPC, or if the CPC gives its solutions, but DP is not satisfied with the decision taken on his/her complaint, the DP may bring the case, either in writing or verbally, to any member of DPC or DCB. The DCB in turn will have 30 days to resolve the case. The DPC is responsible for documenting and keeping file of all complaints that it handles.

Third Stage - At Provincial People’s Committee (PPC)

If after 30 days the aggrieved DP does not hear from the DCB, or if the DP is not satisfied with the decision taken on his/her complaint, the DP may bring the case, either in writing or verbally, to any member of the PPC. The PPC has 45 days within which to resolve the



complaint to the satisfaction of all concerned. The PPC secretariat is also responsible for documenting and keeping file of all complaints that it handles.

Final Stage - Court of Law Decides

If after 45 days following the lodging of the complaint with the PPC, the aggrieved DP does not hear from the PPC, or if he/she is not satisfied with the decision taken on his/her complaint, the case may be brought to a court of law for adjudication. Under no circumstance, can the DP be evicted from his/her property nor can the Government take over his/her property without the explicit permission of the court.

In order to minimize complaints, SPMB (via their assigned grievance focal point or grievance facilitation unit – GFU) will cooperate with the District Compensation Board/ Center for Land Development Fund to participate in and consult on settling complaints.
