S No | Criteria | Assessment issues | Comments with regard to the 20,000 Plots Project |
1. | Scale | Has the channel delivered land in sufficient volume and in appropriate locations to meet demand; is it doing so now; and what are the prospects of continuing doing so in future? | The number of plots generated was high but has not been sustained. |
2. | Cost | Has the channel delivered housing plots at a cost that can be afforded by land seekers for housing especially those in middle and low income categories? Is it doing so now? | The cost of the plots was generally beyond the reach of low income households |
3. | Security of tenure | Has channel delivered plots with sufficient security of tenure to encourage investment in housing? What are the threats to security and can owners deal with them? | Security of tenure for displaced land owners was compromised. In comers were given titles within a short period |
4. | Access to disadvantaged groups | Has channel in past and today delivered land to disadvantaged groups including poor households and poor women? | There was no special consideration for disadvantaged groups in society. |
5. | Service provision | Has the delivery of land been accompanied by provision of infrastructure and services either in advance, on subdivision, or subsequently? | Services in project areas were rudimentary limited to a few made and many unmade roads |
6. | Dispute Resolution | Are there widely available and socially legitimate means of dispute resolution available to those accessing and losing land through the channel? | There was no ad hoc dispute resolution mechanism. Many complaints went unaddressed. |
