dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this investigation is to analyze the causes of variations in
valuation for land compensation. The project looks at the differences in land
compensation values as derived by the various interested groups with the
aim of examining how the Land Acquisition Act, Cap 295 of the laws of
Kenya contributes to these variations.
Where land is under public ownership it would be very easy to arrange with
the government for it to be availed for specified purpose. In this case
compulsory acquisition is not necessary. However public lands. are
continually dwindling and may not be found at the proposed site of the
project (Muoka, 1994). Compulsory acquisition therefore remains a major
source of land for the implementation of large-scale projects. The purpose
of this study is to examine the various acts that govern compulsory Land
Acquisition in Kenya with the aim of relating it to the valuation practice
which in the context of this study refers to the valuation process. In doing
so, the study aims at examining the differences in land compensation values
as explained above and finally making appropriate recommendations
towards harmonizing these differences. | en |
