  • Improving Access to Land Within the Settlements of Port Moresby*

Abstract Improving access to land in the Pacific remains a difficult problem. This paper presents results from a field survey conducted in 12 randomly selected settlements in Port Moresby, the capital of Papua New Guinea, to investigate how settlers acquire land for housing. The analysis shows that several means for land acquisition is used; ranging from outright occupation (that is, land invasion) to purchase of use-rights from the customary landowners. The security of tenure on land held under customary title is maintained using mechanisms ranging from group occupation by members of a clan/tribe to the use of the traditional systems of reciprocation and token-exchange. Security of tenure on land held by the state, in contrast, is maintained thorough political patronage. Settlers fear eviction more from the state than the customary owners suggesting that ownership rights are relatively more secure on land held under customary title. The length of occupation is viewed by the settlers as cementing their ownership-rights to the occupied land.

    United Nations A/HRC/16/52/Add.5 General Assembly Distr.: General 7 February 2011 Original: English Human Rights Council Sixteenth session Agenda item 3 Promotion and protection of all human rights, civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights, including the right to development Report of the Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment Addendum Mission to Papua New Guinea* Summary The present report contains the findings and recommendations of the Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, Manfred Nowak, on his mission to Papua New Guinea, from 14 to 25 May 2010. On the basis of discussions with public officials, judges, lawyers and representatives of civil society, interviews with victims of violence and with persons deprived of their liberty, often supported by forensic medical evidence, the Special Rapporteur found isolated cases of torture in the classical sense of deliberately inflicting severe pain or suffering as a means of extracting a confession or information. He also found, however, a considerable number of cases where persons were subjected to different degrees of beatings by the police during arrest and as a form of punishment, which may also amount to torture. Impunity for torture and ill-treatment is fuelled by the lack of effective complaint mechanisms, independent investigations, monitoring and other similar safeguards. The Special Rapporteur found a general atmosphere of violence and neglect in places of detention. In police stations, detainees were locked up for long periods in overcrowded and filthy cells, without proper ventilation or natural light for periods of up to one year.
