Community land is land which has been hived off from individual parcels of land. Roads and other public utility lands are hived off as percentages of the other land. I endorse this Bill. The people who sacrificed part of their ancestral or individual land to contribute to community land should have a say in the way that land is used, disposed of or changes user.
