points that they are most likely to raise relate to:
(a) the low rate of compensation paid by the
Government for the resumption of land;
(b) the premium charged by the Government for the
conversion of agricultural land to development
land;
(c) Restrictions on the use of land.
It is suggested that the Minister should confine
his reply to saying that this is an extremely
difficult and
complicated subject on which he is
not in a position to comment without first exrrying
out a
1
not reful study of the subject. He has, however,
the points raised by the delegation and will
gonsider them
5. It is possible that at the end of the meeting the delegation
will present a memorandum to the Minister setting out the points
that they have raised in discussion.
