Abstract
This research study were conducted in
late 2004 and the fi ndings presented
to the Department of Provincial and
Local Government (DPLG) and shared
with the Department of Land Affairs
(DLA) in 2005. Since then, some of its
recommendations have been incorporated
into new directions in land policy.
At the National Land Summit in July
2005, the government acknowledged that
land reform is not on track and that ‘a new
trajectory’ would be needed in order not
only to improve the pace of land reform but
also to move away from an ad hoc approach
to land reform. The policy position paper
tabled at the summit by the Ministry of
Agriculture and Land Affairs drew directly
on this PLAAS research study, endorsing its
recommendations and calling for a review
of the guidelines for integrated development
plans (IDPs) and the piloting of new systems
and procedures (MALA 2005a:90).
