  • Title: Law No. 86-844 relating to New Caledonia, 17 July 1986.
    Author: France.
    Journal: Annu Rev Popul Law; 1988; 15():230. PubMed ID: 12289466.
    Abstract:
    Among other things, this Law creates an Agency for Rural Development and Land Management in New Caledonia. The Agency is authorized to acquire by private sale or pre-emption land suitable for farming, livestock, and forestry in order to manage it in a more valuable way and grant it back to individuals or groups or grant use rights over it. If the land is granted to a local group, the group has the choice of holding it according to customary law. The Agency may also give a lifetime indemnity to any agricultural worker over 55 years old who stops using land situated in certain defined zones, or give persons using land in such zones a grant for relocation if they exchange that land for land outside these zones.
