Leaders Urge Government to Avoid Land Expropriation
The Senate Council advised the government to avoid expropriating citizens’ lands for railway projects, especially in Wadi Rum, and to redirect their path to treasury lands to ensure fair compensation for farmers in Al-Kour, who had their lands expropriated for the benefit of the Arab Potash Company. The council also called for amendments to legislation to facilitate the transfer of ownership of state lands to government-owned companies, to conduct prior community consultations on such legislation, and to establish a system for determining fair compensation amounts as well as train personnel in the removal of common ownership and automation.
