DILI, 21 october 2022 (TATOLI) – The State Land and Property Department will soon distribute land title certificates to the beneficiaries of the Uma Kbi’it La’ek (UKL) and Uma Veterans across the country.
The Director-General of State Land Properties, Lucas António da Costa, said that the technical team has already concluded the data collection of the beneficiaries from 12 municipalities and the Oe-Cusse Ambeno Special Administrative Region (RAEOA).
“The technical team is currently conducting data of the beneficiaries of UKL and Uma Veteranos in the administrative posts of Metinaro, Cristo-Rei, and Vera Cruz of Dili municipality,” Costa told Tatoli in Bebora, Dili.
Costa said Prime Minister had already instructed the Minister of Justice to speed up the process.
On June 8, the Council of Ministers approved the Decree-Law project related to Property Registration, presented by the Minister of Justice, Tiago Amaral Sarmento.
The purpose of the Decree-Law project is to approve the general regime for the execution, conservation, updating, and access to property registration information.
The objective of this Decree-Law is to give a relevant boost to the real estate survey and registry process so that, either the State or the citizens, in general, may enjoy, in all dimensions allowed by law, their real estate patrimony and proceed with the regularization of their rights before the public institutions created for that purpose.
