Representatives of the localities benefiting from the programme met to review the five years of implementing the SEMLA programme in the provinces of Ha Giang, Nghe An, Ba Ria – Vung Tau, Binh Dinh, Dong Nai, and Phu Yen.

The programme is aimed at improving national, provincial and local-level capacity to prevent and control pollution as well as providing efficient and equitable services in land registration, land information, land use planning and land valuation.

Nguyen Duc Doi from the Land Administration Department said the programme has helped the Ministry of Natural Resources and the Environment discover weaknesses in the current Land Law and other relevant legal documents and improve the management of information related to land registration and the real estate market.
