I. CHITTAGONG HILL TRACTS RURAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT –II (CHTRDP II) PROJECT DESCRIPTION

1. The Chittagong Hill Tracts Rural Development Project (CHTRDP) was undertaken with financial assistance of Asian Development Bank (ADB) in the backdrop of the region’s poverty, to promote socio-economic development in the region. The Phase I started in 2001-2002 and upon its completion in December, 2009, the Phase II was initiated from 2011-2012. The Government of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh (GOB) and Asian Development Bank (ADB) signed the loan agreement for Second Chittagong Hill Tracts Rural Development Project-II (CHTRDP-II) on 2nd October 2011 (Loan No. 2763-BAN, Project No. 42248-013). The agreement came into effect on 13 December 2011 following which the Project Management Office (PMO) was established in Rangamati. The Project will contribute to the reduction of social and economic poverty among rural people, including indigenous people and poor women in the three CHT districts, namely Khagrachari, Rangamati and Bandarban.

2. The objectives of the project are:  Improve rural infrastructure and sustainable natural resources management and monitoring;  Increase rural income, including those of remote rural women and disadvantaged groups, through increasing economic opportunities and activities;  Support strengthening of the key CHT institutional stakeholders to plan, implement and monitor sustainable rural development in the three hill districts.

3. There are 5 (five) components under this project which are as follows;

 INSTITUTIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND CAPACITY BUILDING

 RURAL ROADS

 COMMUNITY INFRASTRUCTURE

 MICRO-AGRIBUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

 PROJECT MANAGEMENT

4. MoCHTA is the project’s Executing Agency (EA) while the CHTRC is the Lead Implementing Agency (LIA). LGED is responsible for the Output B – Rural Roads (RR) - and the Hill District Councils of Rangamati, Khagrachari and Bandarban Districts are the Implementing agencies (IA) in their respective districts.

5. The component B (Rural Roads) involves substantive ‘land acquisition and resettlement’ (LAR) as part of the plan to construct as many as 29 roads across the three Hill Districts. This entails compliance with ADB’s safeguards on Indigenous Peoples and Resettlement and as well as with the pertinent legal dispositions of the Government of Bangladesh. These are to be detailed in a Land Acquisition and Resettlement Plan (LARP), to be prepared for each road. The present LARP is prepared for the ‘Baniarchar-Gozalia Road’ which LGED has put on a priority list.

6. Taungya, a local NGO based in Rangamati was sub-contracted by the MoCHTA on 20 August 2013 to facilitate the Land Acquisition and Resettlement (LAR) process of Rural Road (RR) component. As per the stipulations of this contract, Taungya is responsible for assisting the Project Management Office (PMO) to prepare the Land Acquisition and Settlement Plan (LARP) for each of the 29 roads, detailing the overall LAR process and implementation of the LARPs.

7. As a part of this assignment, Taungya prepared this report. The present Land Acquisition and Resettlement Plan (LARP) for the ‘Baniarchar-Gozalia Road’ has been prepared taking into account the following findings:

(i) Sample survey data (ii) Field visit, meetings and FGDs with different level of stakeholders (iii) Determination of the extent of losses and identification of entitlement of Affected Person (APs) (iv) The policies and legal frame work applicable, consultation mechanisms with the APs, Severely Affected Person (SAPs) and other stakeholders (v) The principles/modalities for information disclosure, provisions made for compensation payment and income restoration programs (vi) Provision made for facilitating/helping the SAP, indirectly affected persons in re- establishing their incomes and (vii) Implementation arrangement and monitoring of the implementation measures.

II. SUB-PROJECT DESCRIPTION

8. The planned subproject, ‘‘Baniarchar-Gozalia Road’’ will be constructed in Lama upazilla of Bandarban Hill District that traverses across in 2 unions (Faithong and Gozalia Union) and 2 Mouzas (306 Faithong and 305 Gozalia Mouza). There are 7 in Rangamati District. Lama is one of them.

9. occupies an area of 671.83 sq kilometers in its boundary. It is bounded by and Shatkania Upazila of on the north, Ruma, Alikadam and Thanchi Upazilas on the east, Naikhonchari Upazila on the south and of Cox’s Bazar distrcit and Lohagara upazila of Chittagong district on the west. GPS co-ordination supports the conducted SES that directly affected communities are: 1) Marma, 2) Mro 3) Tripura and 4) Bngali.

10. There is a provision of the project is to construct bridges and culverts on the road. In total 3 bridges will be constructed. Total length of the bridges is 165 meter. Longest one is 80 meter and shortest one is 25 meter. Furthermore, 2 culverts will be constructed there. The construction of the road will be 7.3 meter width and 8.790 Kilometer length.

11. The Location of the project is 70 kilometer away from District Head Quarter and 35 Kilometer from Upazila Head Quarter. It is in the south-east onwards from the district Head Quarters. The existing earthen road will be constructed to Bituminous Carpeting (BC) Road. The road directly traverses to the 5 villages.

12. Land structure of 5 direct affected villages is gentle hill. The construction of the proposed road will follow the existing alignment. The figure 1 Blue in color shows the existing and proposed road alignment.

13. The road will directly connect with the Lama Upazila Head quarter as well as the main market place. It will also connect with more sub roads/ paths of the affected villages.

14. Topography of the 5 affected villages is composed of gentle hill slopes. Most of the houses of villages are built at the valley bottom on the bank of river. The most number of houses are made of bamboo and wood. The nearby hills are used for turmeric and ginger cultivation, horticultures and for livelihood purposes.

15. The figure 1 also shows 15 potentially served villages by the road. Details of these villages are shown in the table -1. The proposed subproject road will provide the communities with an easy access to Upazila Sadar and Main Market Place. It directs from west to east.

16. The road will directly affect to 79 APs (Affected People) from 5 affected villages. Total population is 1414. Among the 79 APs, 43 APs are belonging to Bangali community, 26 are to Marma community, 8 are to Tripura community and the rest 2 are to the Mro indigenous community. All the villages were established more than hundred years ago.

The villagers depend on agriculture, horticulture, and selling of forest products like timber, bamboo and firewood. Now-a-days, fruits gardening (mango, banana, litchi etc.) is increasing remarkably. Additionally, livestock rearing (cow, goat, pig, buffalo etc.) also remains a very important livelihood options. Almost all households raise poultry for domestic consumption and sell the surplus to the market to earn extra incomes.

17. The social structure of the indigenous communities in the CHT remains deeply patriarchal. This is no different in this case also. However, mobility wise the women have greater degree of freedom in compare to the overall situation in Bangladesh. During SES, it was found that the indigenous women in the project area participate in the economic activities in equal measure along with the men which is the general conditions in the CHT among the indigenous communities.

18. The education is not as vulnerable as other areas in CHT. There is a government high school at Muslim Para, in Faithong Union which is on the west side of the project. There is a government primary school and two Para kendra which are driven by CHittagong Hill Tracts Development Borad. Furthermore, there are four Madrasas for Muslim community for primary level of education. But, students have to go far distant places for their higher secondary education. They have chance to go to colleges either Lama or Chakaria of Cox’s Bazar.

19. Health service is not easily reachable to the villagers. There is only one health-care center of the villages. They get only basic health-care from the center. In emergency health situation, they have to go to Hospital and Cox’s Bazar.

20. The proposed subproject i.e. construction of the new road is expected to be more easier and time saving to the villagers to get all sorts of services from Upazila sadar and market access. But, In all aspects, quality of life through access to health, education and other services in the vicinity will be upgraded day by day.

22. However, people opined that they are losing some property like land, trees etc. which may consider as bad impact. But it can be minimized through adequate compensation to the APs. In very low scale, there may be environmental impacts due to the project which can be mitigated properly.

III: SCOPE OF LAND ACQUISITION AND RESETTLEMENT (LAR)

A. DATA COLLECTION METHODOLOGY 23. Primary data have mainly been collected from head of the project-affected households(HHs) through a house-to-house socioeconomic survey (SES) using a structured questionnaire, provided in Annex 1, that also provided an inventory of losses (IOL). All the field staff of Taungya is recruited from indigenous community and they could understand the local language easily. They were extensively trained on Land Acquisition and Resettlement (LAR) Process. A reconnaissance visit was done to the subproject site before starting the SES/IOL.

24. An experienced survey team was engaged to undertake a detailed SES/LOI as well as a market survey of the affected properties to determine replacement value. The team is skilled enough to data generation, data analysis, and report preparation and so forth.

25. The field enumerators consulted documents and maps provided by the local LGED office and collected data by consulting members of each HH along the indicative ROW. Along the alignment, a total of 79 APs (Affected Person) were identified who would potentially be affected. The SES/LOI was done for 100% affected HHs. The survey team took GPS coordinates along the alignment and PIC consultant prepared a Goggle Map (G.Map) of the alignment showing area of land with length and owners of the respective land.

B. ESTIMATED SCOPE OF LAR IMPACTS

26. The Local Government Engineering Department (LGED) provided a sketch map of the ‘Baniarchar-Gozalia Road’. The alignment is to be 8.790 kilometer length and 7.3 meter width. The sketch map does not show the slopes or a well-defined road RoW, so how land needs to be acquired can only be an approximate estimation.

27. The total affected land amount of the affected persons is 1982.00 decimal. Both type (record & customary) land ownership are there in project’s villages. But all amount of affected land is titled (Record). The amount of land will be required to acquire for construction of this proposed road. However, the ownership will not be clarified until the notice under Section 3, CHT Land Acquisition Ordinance,1958 is served by the DC office and the area verified by the Joint Verification Team (JVT). Most of the APs possess title land rather than customary title of land.

28. Communities will lose partly their land/trees/structures. In total, 79 APs are directly being affected by the sub-project. Among the 79 APs, 65 will loss land along with either structures/trees, 10 will loss structures, and 2 will loss trees and the rest 2 will loss business. All the APs will be identified by their type of losses through IOL, census, and socioeconomic survey (SES). ADB's Safeguard policy and best practices in Bangladesh, regarding assistance to the development induced affected persons have been disclosed to the APs and stakeholders, during the survey of the present subproject. The APs opted preferences for resettlement/rehabilitation assistance have also been listed during the survey period through focus group discussion (FGD) as well as questionnaire survey. The details of APs are in the Tables-2 (A), 2 (B), 2 (C) and 2 (D) which is annexed as annexure-3. .

IV: SOCIO-ECONOMIC SURVEY (PROFILES OF THE AFFECTED PERSONS)

33. On 29 of May 2016 Local LGED with a sketch map handed over the existing road alignment to the respective staff of RNGO. An extensive socio-economic survey (SES) was carried out by Taungya for this purpose based on a structured questionnaire (attached as Annex - 1). The survey respondents included the affected persons/families along the indicative ‘right of way’ (RoW) as per the maps and other documents provided by LGED and whose land and/or other properties are under acquisition for the road. The survey was carried out from 26 of July 2016. The collected survey data were extensively cross-checked to eliminate any eventual errors throughout the month August –2016.

34. The survey was carried out with extensive consultations and participation of the communities, Affected Persons (APs) and the local level leaders, such as Headmen, Karbari, religious persons, Upazilla & Union Parishad Chairmen and members.

35. The SES questionnaire format provides detailed information about the APs such as total number of family members, sex, age, and occupation, level of education and level of family income. This also includes detailed information on their total land holdings, type of land and tenure, and as well as the overall amount of land under acquisition along with standing structures, trees on these lands. The survey findings are presented in the table 7-12 below with analysis.

V. RESETTLEMENT POLICY FRAMEWORK

A. CHT LAND ADMINISTRATION FRAMEWORK

42. Many of the laws that apply to the rest of the country, including the code of civil procedure, 1908 and the East Bengal State Acquisition and Tenancy Act, 1950 and the Land Acquisition Ordinance, 1982 do not apply to the region. The CHT Regulation of 1900 is the single most important law for the CHT. The Regulation functions as of constitutional legal instrument and vet the application of other laws that apply to the region, among others, by Specifying the nature and extent of application of those laws. Other special laws that apply to the CHT include the CHT Land Acquisition Regulation,1958, the Hill District Councils Acts of 1989, the CHT Regional Council Act of 1998 and the CHT Land Disputes Resolution Commission Act of 2001.

43. The Acquisition and Requisition of immovable property Ordinance (ordinance II of1982) and its Subsequent amendments in 1993 and 1994 provide the current legal framework in Bangladesh outside the CHT Governing land acquisition for public purposes. The 1982 Ordinance coverts all cases of acquisition and requisition of immovable property (i.e. Land, crops, and built structures) for any public purpose or in the public interest. The Ordinance does not cover project APS without title or ownership records, such as uthulies (informal settlers/squatters/encroachers), or Khas land cultivators. Further, in most of the cases the compensation paid does not constitute market or replacement value of the property acquired.

44. Land acquisition in the CHT is under a different legal Framework from the rest of Bangladesh. The CHT has had the status as a special region since the British period. Most of the land in the CHT belongs to the Government either as Reserve Forest (RF) or as Unclassified state Forest (USF).The Chittagong Hill Tract Regulation 1 of 1900 was the sole legal instrument for the governance and administration of the CHT. Under the regulation the DC could reoccupy land even though settlement of the same might have been given earlier. The regulation prescribed payment of compensation for various interests in the case of land acquisition.

45. With the impending Kaptai hydro project dam construction, the Government found it expedient to clarify the government’s authority for acquisition of a huge tract of land that would be inundated, the Government replaced parts of the CHT Regulation 1 of 1900 with the CHT (Land Acquisition) Regulation ,1958,which remains as the most important legal instrument for the government with regard to land acquisition in the CHT(see appendix B for an unofficial translation the regulation). After the PA of December 2,1997 between the Government and the PCJSS, several provisions of the local Government Acts of 1989 were amended, so that the Government cannot acquire land owned by an individual as per CH`T Regulation 1 of 1900 or under any rules of the Regulation without consultation with the HDC (Section 64).It is also equally important to note that no prescribed rules were developed to describe how the Land Acquisition

24

Ordinance, 1958 would be applied in day to day land acquisition cases in the CHT. So in absence of such developed rules under CHT Land Acquisition Ordinance 1958, the land Acquisition Ordinance 1982 is applied to the CHT as well as to the rest of Bangladesh.

B. ADB’S INVOLUNTARY RESETTLEMENT POLICY

46. The ADB’s 2009 Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS) summarizes involuntary Resettlement safeguards, as follows:

1. SPS INVOLUNTARY RESETTLEMENT SAFEGUARDS

Objectives: To avoid involuntary resettlement wherever possible; to minimize involuntary resettlement by exploring project and design alternatives; to enhance, or at least restore, the livelihoods of all displaced persons in real terms relative to pre-project levels; and to improve the standards of living of the displaced poor and other vulnerable groups.

Scope and Triggers: The involuntary resettlement safeguards covers physical displacement (relocation, loss of residential land, or loss of shelter) and economic displacement (Loss of land, assets, access to assets, income sources, or means of livelihoods) as a result of:

 Involuntary Acquisition of land, or  Involuntary restrictions on land use or on access to legally designated parks and protected areas  It covers them whether such losses and involuntary restrictions are full or partial, permanent or temporary.

SPS principles:

 Screen the project early on to identify past, present, and future involuntary resettlement impacts and risks. Determine the scope of resettlement planning through a survey and/or census of displaced persons, including the gender analysis, specifically related to resettlement impacts and risks.  Carry out meaningful consultations with affected persons, host communities, and concerned non-government organizations.  Inform all displaced persons of their entitlements and resettlement options  Ensure their participation in planning, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation of resettlement programs.  Pay particular attention to the needs of vulnerable groups, especially those below the poverty line, the landless, the elderly, women and children, and Indigenous People, and those without legal title to land, and ensure their participation in consultations.  Establish a grievance redress mechanism to receive and facilitate resolution of the affected persons’ concerns.  Support the social and cultural institutions of displaced persons and their host population.  Where involuntary impacts and risks are highly complex and sensitive, compensation and resettlement decisions should be preceded by a social preparation phase.

25

 Improve , or at least restore , the livelihoods of all displaced persons through  Land- based resettlement strategies when affected livelihoods are land based where possible or cash compensation at replacement value for land when the loss of land does not undermine livelihoods.  Prompt replacement of assets with access to assets of equal or higher value.  Prompt compensation at full replacement cost for assets that can’t be restored, and (iv) additional revenues and services through benefit sharing schemes where possible.  Provide physically and economically displaced persons with needed assistance , including the following:  If there is relocation, secured tenure to relocation land , better housing at resettlement sites with comparable access to employment and production opportunities , integration of resettled persons economically and socially into their host communities , and extension of project benefits to host communities  Transitional support and development assistance , such as land development , credit facilities , training , or employment opportunities; and extension of project benefits to host communities  Transitional support and development assistance, such as land development, credit facilities, training, or employment; and  Civic infrastructure and community services, as required.  Improve the standards of living of the displaced poor and other vulnerable groups; including women, to at least national minimum standards, In rural areas provide them with appropriate income sources and legal and affordable access to adequate housing  develop procedures in a transparent, consistent, and equitable manner if land acquisition is through negotiated settlements will maintain the same or better income and livelihood status  Ensure that displaced persons without titles to land or any recognizable legal rights to land are eligible for resettlement assistance and compensation for loss of non-land assets  Prepare a resettlement plane elaborating on displaced persons’ entitlements, the income and livelihood restoration strategy, institutional arrangements, monitoring and reporting framework, budget, and time bound implementation schedule  disclose a draft resettlement plane, including documentation of the consultation process In a timely manner, before project appraisal, in an accessible place and form and language (s) understandable to affected persons and other stakeholders. Disclose the final resettlement plan and its updates to affected persons and other stakeholders  Conceive and execute involuntary resettlement as part of a development project or program. Include the full costs of resettlement in the presentation of project costs and benefits. For a project with significant involuntary resettlement impacts, consider implementing the involuntary resettlement component of the project as a stand-alone operation.  Pay compensation and provide other settlement entitlements before physical or economic displacement. Implement the resettlement plan under close supervision throughout project implementation.  Monitor and assess resettlement outcomes, their impacts on the standards of living of displaced persons, and whether the objectives of the resettlement plan have been achieved by taking into account the baseline conditions and the results of resettlement monitoring. Disclose monitoring reports

26

C. CHTRDP-II'S LAR POLICY

47. In 2007 draft National Policy on Resettlement and Rehabilitation (NPRR) was prepared under the Ministry of Land with the help of an ADB Technical Assistance (TA) Loan. The NPRR is designed to address and mitigate both Project and Non-Project, i.e. river erosion and slum eviction, induced impacts and displacement with provision for appropriate assistance and rehabilitation. The NPRR is based on the premise that for achieving overall socioeconomic development it is imperative to safeguard the interest of those affected who cannot absorb the risks and costs of national development. This policy is still in the process of evaluation and approval by the Government. As a result the 1982 Ordinance is still being followed for all the cases of land acquisition and requisition throughout Bangladesh, with the exception of the CHT, where the CHT (Land Acquisition) Regulation, 1958 applies.

48. In the absence of an approved Government policy consistent with the ADB’s recent 2009 SPS, this Project-specific land acquisition and resettlement framework (LARF) has been prepared. The LARF will apply to this subproject and approved under the project. This will ensure that APs impacted by land acquisition – whether it is owned land or occupied through formal or informal agreement or without any title or agreement – will be eligible for appropriate compensation covering replacement value of their assets.

49. The LARF reflects the Government land acquisition laws/regulation as well as the ADB’s recent SPS, which covers environmental, involuntary resettlement and IP polices. The LARF stipulates eligibility and provisions for all types of losses, including land (and in this Project, IP Common Land), crops, trees, fisheries and fish ponds, structures, business, employment covering (workdays and wages) and social infrastructure.

50. ADB policy requires that APs and affected communities will be compensated and assisted through replacement of acquired land, property, housing, infrastructure, resources, income sources, and services, in cash or kind, so that their economic and social circumstances will be at least restored to the pre-project level. All compensation is based on the principle of replacement cost as guided by the ADB’s SPS. In the continued absence of a national Resettlement Policy in Bangladesh, the SPS will form the basis for the project’s LARF.

51. This LARF has been adopted to provide guidance on the project’s resettlement and rehabilitation issues in one sample subproject, and this will be a model for all future subprojects to be prepared for this ADB –financed Project. This will ensure that persons affected by land acquisition – whether titled or non-titled will be eligible for appropriate compensation/resettlement benefits. Persons having no legal title but using the land – if acquired for the Project use – will be provided with compensation and resettlement benefits for structures and assets. The customary rights to land and physical property will also be recognized for: IPs using any forest or Khas land; for lessees of homestead, agriculture and commercial land; sharecroppers, and renters of land and structure.

27

Compensation will also be extended to APs for loss of any asset including structures, fences, trees, plants or crops.

52. The LARF also endorses an income restoration plans for SAPs. In addition to income restoration and cash assistance, the LARFs will include opportunities for Income Generation Activities (IGAs). SAP preferences for IGAs will be assessed prior to designing these income restoration measures provided for eligible SAPs involuntarily displaced from their homes, losing more than 10 percent of their assets or income sources, and including non-titled persons affected by the Project, will receive priority access to the IGAs. The Project’s Micro Agribusiness Development (MAD) will provide opportunities for SAPs to chose IGAs appropriate to their situation. MAS’s objective will be to increase the income of poor households, with SAPs receiving priority through LARP budgetary provisions in addition to the existing MAD budget, by promoting the development of market-driven micro agribusiness in four selected products, namely; (i) fruits (orange, mango, litchi); (ii) vegetables (brinjal and cucurbits); (iii) pond fisheries; and (iv) medicinal plants. The component will also support market facility development (to be financed under the rural roads component of CHTRDP-II) and action research on potential high-value crops such as leaf. Other options may be offered through NGOs, such as in nurseries and livestock.

53. The Project’s resettlement planning and implementation will be carried out in full consultation with the APs, and all efforts will be made to minimize disruption during Project implementation. AP’s preferences will be taken into account in the selection of alternative relocated sites (if any). A census will be conducted once the details of subproject works have been identified. The date of the census will become the Cut-Off Date for resettlement benefits and any encroachers or informal settlers after the date will not be CHT 1958 LA Regulation, notification by the DC under Section 3 of the 1958 Ordinance, will constitute the Cut-Off Date.

54. In summary, the LARF will establish a dual process of acquiring land for the roads. One process will be through CCL by DC Office following the CHT LA 1958 Regulation with the Hill District Council Act of 1998 amended so that the Government cannot acquire land owned by an individual, as per CHT Regulation 1of 1900, without consultation with the HDCs.

55. The other process, established through precedence over several decades addresses the gap between the legal framework for land acquisition in Bangladesh (and in this case in the CHT) and ADB’s IR Policy, originally established in 1995 and in 2009 supplanted by the Safeguards Policy Statement (SPS), which combines environment, resettlement and IP safeguard policies. This provides for grants, such as “top up” land and structure payments under CCL to market price/replacement levels, payment for shifting costs, grants for vulnerable APs (women headmen households, IPs, among others), and Income Restoration Plans for Severely Affected Persons (SAPs) losing more than 10 percent of their land and/or shifting residents/ businesses.

28

56. In line with this latter process, the LARF will provide a grant for IP common land. This is in line with ADB’s SPS respecting IP customary and ancestral lands, as well as international IP conventions that Bangladesh is a signatory to. The LAR Framework outlines a process for verifying registered and unregistered IP common land through the customary land management based on the CHT Regulation I of 1900 that set up a land administration through Circle Chiefs, Headmen, and Karbaris. Grants for IP Common land will be awarded to IPs and non-IPs alike who have been certified by Headmen, Circle Chiefs and finally by the HDCs.

57. This process is necessary, as the CCL process does not formally recognized IP Common lands. Instead, it defines such ancestral lands as ‘Khas` or ‘Government` lands. In addition, the LAR, in this context, will define a consultation framework to obtain the free, prior and informed consent of affected IP groups where the project necessitates the acquisition of ancestral lands of IP groups which will lead to physical displacement of such groups or individuals. As shown in the due diligence visits described above, such displacement has already occurred under CHTRDP-I and will doubtless occur under CHTRDP-II. The LARF also defines grievance redress processes for both CCL titled land payments and for IP Common land grants.

D. OBJECTIVES OF THE LAND ACQUISITION AND RESETTLEMENT PLAN (LARP)

58. The land Acquisition and Resettlement plan (LARP) has been prepared taking into account the findings of the sample survey data, field visit and meetings with different level of stakeholders and FGD. The LARP identifies:  The extent of losses  The policies and legal framework applicable  Provisions made for compensation payment and income restoration programs  provision made for facilitating/ helping the SAP, indirectly affected persons in reestablishing their incomes  Responsibilities of Chief Resettlement Officer (CRO), District Resettlement Officer (DRO) and others in delivering and monitoring the implementation measures.

E. LAR ENTITLEMENTS

59. An Entitlement Matrix has been prepared on the basis of currently known impacts (Table 12). It identifies the categories of impact based on surveys carried out in the four subproject areas and shows the entitlements for each type of loss. This entitlement matrix will be applicable for this subproject where ever it is applicable or relevant. If new impacts are identified during implementation of LARPs for this subproject in future then such losses will be included in the entitlement matrix and the LARP will be the appropriately revised.

60. By following the Project’s LAR policy all the affected people irrespective of their legal status will be compensated for any kind of loss caused due to project implementation. The customary right to the property of the IPs will be ensured. The losses will cover loss of property (land, structure, trees, crops, common property resources and others),

29

livelihood and other unanticipated losses. They will receive compensation at replacement rate as assessed by the census and Socio Economic Survey (SES), Land Market Survey (LMS), Structure Replacement Value Survey (SRVS) and Tree Valuation Survey (TVS). Based on these survey data and through own assessment, the Property Valuation Assessment Team (PVAT) will determine the Maximum Allowable Replacement Value (MARV) of the lost property.

61. In the project area two groups of people have been identified, IPs and Bengali people (those plain-landers who came before and after the 1980s to the CHT). The IPs have three kinds of land ownership: (1) Registered Land (from the DC) with proper documents; (2) Those who applied for registration long ago (here, in line with the ADB’s SPS, termed as ‘legalizable`); and (3) Common/Community Land used/ Owned through Customary/ Traditional bondobosti (lease) from the Circle Chief (CC) through appointed Headmen. The Bengalis who came before the 1980s have assimilated themselves with IPs to a great extend have more or less a similar kind of land ownership system as the IPs. On the other hand the Bengalis who came during and after the 1980s (locally called as ‘Settlers’) have legal papers of land ownership from the government. Some of them are enjoying their legally registered land, but many are unable enjoy their land, which was in fact IP common land, categorized by the government as ‘Khas’ Land. Through security concerns, many of them are squatting on other more accessible and unprotected Khas land or have engaged in ‘land grabbing’, taking IP land without either Government or any other permission. In many of the above cases the Bengali ‘Owned’ land through Government document, given through the 1980s ‘transmigration’ program supporting lowland Settlers who moved to the CHT, is simultaneously claimed by IPs through tradition/customary rights outlined in the above LARF sections.

62. In the Entitlement Matrix, all the issues have been addressed by identifying nature and categories of losses, identified the Entitled persons (EPs) through proper definition, their entitlements for the losses. The matrix describes the units of the entitlements for compensating the lost assets, and various resettlement and rehabilitation benefits. The matrix also addressed the implementation issues step with corresponding responsible organizations to implement that.

63. The DC will compensate CCL according to the GOB’s regulations for loss of property on registered land with approval of HDC; and an additional grant will be paid by PMO/HDC through the NGO to cover the MARV. The PMO/HDC will also provide grants through the NGO to APs who do not own registered land but have customary/ traditional leased land registered by the Headman/Circle Chief. The PMO/HDC will also provide grants to squatters/informal/settlers/encroachers or APs/SAPs without any legal status according to GOB ordinances if they are confirmed by project census as users of the acquired land.

64. The Entitlement Matrix also addressed loss of access to income, livelihood and common property resources or any utility services by the APs/SAPs. The HDC will take appropriate measures to restore lost livelihood through providing training or other

30

appropriate support for the APs/SAPs. Special attention has been given in the Entitlement Matrix for the vulnerable APs/SAPs, including female headed households, marginalized IPs, families with disable members, and others. Vulnerable HHs will qualify for additional assistance/grant, as specified in the entitlement Matrix.

65. All APs will be entitled to compensation and resettlement assistance based on severity (significance) of impacts. nevertheless, eligibility to receive compensation and other assistance will be limited by the cut-off date for compensation under law (Ordinance II of 1982 and its 1994 amendments) is considered for those identified on the project ROW acquisition at the time of serving of notice under Section 3 or joint verification by DC and the Requiring Body (RB), in this case the HDCs, whichever is earlier. The cut-off Date eligibility for resettlement assistance/grant under this LARF is the commencement date of the census for a given subproject. The absence of legal title will not bar APs from compensation or grants, as specified in the entitlement Matrix below.

66. Entitlement Matrix of the LARF of CHTRDP-II endorses 17 kinds of Entitlements in terms of related losses. Out of these entitlements, serial number 1, 2, 7, 8, 9 and 14 will be mostly applicable for this project and accordingly an entitlement matrix has been prepared with applicable entitlements. The prepared matrix is in the table -13.

VI. COMMUNITY CONSULTATION AND PARTICIPATION

A. COMMUNITY CONSULTATION AND STAKEHOLDERS’ PARTICIPATION

67. The entire LAR process, from gathering relevant data for impact assessment, and facilities and development of appropriate options for resettlement of the affected people, has been carried out with extensive consultation and participation of the APS, SAPS and others relevant institutional stakeholders. For the purpose of elaborating of the present LARP, a number of such consultation meetings were held, as detailed in the Annex - 2 which shows the schedules and contents of discussion with the stakeholders.

What is Free, Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC)?

 FPIC Is a decision-making process: – Free : does not involve intimidation, coercion and/or manipulation; – Prior: decision is made before initiatives/activities are undertaken; – Informed: All relevant issues and potential impacts – positive of negative – are clearly understood by the affected peoples/persons; – Consent: Based on the above, to say ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ to any activity, programme or policy  FPIC is an emerging international standard but surely, it is not a new concept.

68. The consultations followed the principles of ‘free, prior and informed consent’ (FPIC) by which the APs and SAPs were provided the relevant information beforehand and subsequently invited to give their opinions and finally, consent.

FIGURE 4: CONSULTATION MEETING AT HEADMAN PARA, FAITHONG, LAMA, BANDARBAN.

35

69. These principles will be followed during the implementation of the LARP and throughout implementation of CHTRDP II’s LAR related activities. This will include planning and implementation of LAR related activities, monitoring, grievance redress and as well as information disclosure.

B. INFORMATION DISCLOSURE

70. A summarized version of the LARP will be printed as a booklet in Bengali and disclosed to the APs/SAPs once the cut-off date is established. Given that a significant number of the APs and the neighboring communities are not able to read in Bengali, special group discussions will be held with the APs and the communities in presence of the community elders/leaders. Finally, the LARP will be hosted on the ADB/CHTRDP website for public access and scrutiny.

36

VII. GRIEVANCE REDRESS MECHANISM

71. A GRC will be formed at the district level as outlines in the above-mentioned MoCHTA's Executive Order and the project’s LAR Guidelines. The GRC will receive grievance cases from the APs and SAPs through the NGO and give deliberations to resolve resettlement and compensation issues. However, the grievance cases will be heard at first at a local – Union – level at an Alternative Dispute Resolution Forum (ADRF) formed for the purpose of CHTRDP II. In all hearings – ADRF or GRC – the R-NGO will arrange the presence of a legal adviser as an observer and also to facilitate and support the APs in finding a solution to the cases of grievances.

72. If a case of grievance is not resolved at the ADRF and GRC level, this will be referred to the project’s Resettlement Advisory Committee (RAC), although all through the process the APs/SAPs will have the right to seek appropriate recourse before a competent court of law of Bangladesh.

73. The representative of the NGO, as the member secretary of the GRC, upon receipt of complaints, wills organize a GRC hearing. All grievance cases submitted before the GRC will be settled within fifteen (15) days of receiving the complaints from the AP.

74. The composition, role and functions of the GRC, RAC and ADRF is provided in the subsequent sections of this document on pages 50-52 which is validated through the MoCHTA Executive Order (Ref. No 29.226.014.00.00.203-2013-462). The overall GRC mechanism is provided in the flow chart next page-35.

Office of the Deputy Commissioner

102. The DCs have the power to acquire titled land and to assess compensation of properties thus acquired. CHT law provides the power to the DC, who conducts the acquisition through the Land Acquisition Officer (LAO). The LAO or his/her appointed officers, along with HDC, PMO and R-NGO staff, will conduct a joint physical verification of property on the land in accordance with the LARP which will be prepared by R-NGO and submitted to PMO for their necessary review and onward transmission to CHTRC and ADB for further necessary action. The DCs are responsible for the entire acquisition process and compensation. HDC/R-NGO will liaise with the concerned DC office to complete the land acquisition process in a timely fashion.

Office of the Circle Chief and Headmen

103. The Traditional Institutions around of the office of the Circle Chiefs and Headmen still play a very important role in the areas of land and revenue administration, customary land rights and delivery of traditional justice to the communities in the CHT and which is recognized by law. Commensurate to this authority of the Circle Chiefs and the Headmen, community land/Individual grants for loss of lands will be verified by Headmen and Karbaris, with assistance from the R-NGO and Resettlement Specialist. Under this process, users of Community Land/Individual Land, whether registered or not, will be eligible for the grants, and the price of the land will be verified through the PVAT, as with the CCL process.

49

IX. COMPENSATION AND RESETTLEMENT BUDGET

A. COMPENSATION, RELOCATION AND INCOME RESTORATION

104. The compensation for the APs and SAPs is calculated as follows;

o Registered land: as per recorded price of the lands in the DC/UNO office duly certified the competent officials of these offices. In the cases where such land prices are not available, price of similar land in the vicinity is takes as the benchmark o Unregistered land – both customary ownership and land which are considered legalizable: On the basis of estimation by the concerned local headmen and which are further cross-checked by the local stakeholders including records, where available, of recent land sales and purchase. o Standing structures: standard rates of the Public Works Department (PWD) o Crops: Standard rates of the District Agriculture Office o Trees: Standard rates of the Department of Forest o Business: Those losing their business will not be covered under this provision, as they are likely to be relocated within the same vicinity without dislocation of their client base. They will however receive a business restoration grant which will be decided by the PVAT.

105. In addition to the above standard estimate, a premium according to government rates will be given to the APs and SAPs as part of Cash Compensation under Law (CCL). Further, the PVAT will decide on Maximum Allowable Replacement Value (MARV) to compensate for the market price of the lost assets of the APs and SAPs.

106. The CCL will be paid for the registered land, structures, crops and trees through the DC office following standard government rules. For the unregistered lands which are considered under customary ownership, a comparable process to the CCL will be adopted through the traditional institutions - Circle Chief, Headmen, and Karbaris, as ratified in the 1900 CHT Regulations – and the amount will be paid from the PMO by the HDC. The MARV, once decided by the PVAT, will also be paid by similar method by the HDC.

107. The SAPs will be provided with opportunities for Income Generation Activities (IGAs) with due consideration of their preferences CHTRDP II’s Micro Agro business Development (MAD) component will provide opportunities for SAPs to choose IGAs appropriate to their situation. One time grants will be made in favor of the female headed households with disabled family member.

108. In all cases, the R-NGO will play the necessary role of facilitation and coordination with the PMO, DPMO, DC, HDC and other stakeholders; so that APs, SAPs and female headed households receive their compensation without hassles.

50

B. RESETTLEMENT BUDGET AND FINANCING

109. The budget below is tentative with a margin of error of +-20%. As the LARP is currently being elaborated, The DC office is still to provide the necessary estimate for CCL. Similarly, the estimate for the customary ownership lands waits for completion by the competent authority i.e. the concerned mouza headmen and the office of the Circle Chief. Consequently, the meeting of the PVAT also is still to be held; so the MARVs and as well as the income restoration and relocation grants for the SAPs and female headed HHs remains undetermined.

110. The budget, thus, is prepared through an extensive survey exercised by taking into account the current market value of the land and as well as the approximate value of the standing structures and crops and trees. The estimate is based upon discussion and consultation with the local market actors, community members, mouza headmen and UP Chairmen. All such discussions were held separately with every respondent by the R-NGO.

112. The total budget amount for the LARP is estimated at TK. 58,057,460.75 (US$ 753015. 05 @ TK. 77.10). The detailed breakdown is provided table-14 below:
