Council approves land compensation for Aqaba projects
The Cabinet has approved the mechanism for compensation and exchange for lands that will be expropriated for the Aqaba Port railway project and the Potash expansion. The mechanism stipulates that the legal quarter deduction will not be applied to the expropriated lands allocated for the railway project, even if the expropriation procedures are prolonged. The mechanism includes two types of expropriations: the first pertains to lands expropriated in favor of the Potash Company under the concession law, which does not include the legal quarter deduction; the second concerns lands to be expropriated for the Aqaba railway according to the current Real Estate Law. Compensation can be either the full value of the lands or an exchange for similar lands amounting to 6,000 dunams in the Jordan Valley. The total expropriated lands represent less than half a percent (5%) of the agricultural lands in the Jordan Valley, estimated at over 1,325 dunams out of 390,000 dunams.
