Deputies Opposed Expropriation
The House of Representatives approved an amendment to Article (2, Second) of the Real Estate Ownership Law of 2026, adding railways to the definition of roads. This allows for expropriation of up to a quarter of the property's area to create roads without compensation to the landowner. This amendment reflects ongoing debate over the impact of railway expropriations, with supporters arguing that it increases land value and benefits landowners, while opponents fear it negatively affects land ownership, potentially leading to parceling and decreased values. The amendments also broaden the definition of roads to include all types of streets, bridges, railways, and their accessories.
