G.O.(Ms) No.622, Erratum, 2021
The Revenue and Disaster Management Department, Land Disposal Wing, issued G.O.(Ms) No.622 on 1 October 2021 to correct an order number in its records. The reference printed as G.O.(Ms) No.267, dated 17 September 2021, must instead be read as G.O.(Ms) No.567, dated 17 September 2021.
What the document does
G.O.(Ms) No.622 of the Revenue and Disaster Management Department, Land Disposal Wing, is an erratum correcting the number of a government order dated 17 September 2021. It does not set out a new regularisation process, change the extension period or provide new eligibility conditions.
The correction is:
- The incorrect reference is G.O.(Ms) No.267, Revenue and Disaster Management Department, dated 17 September 2021.
- The correct reference is G.O.(Ms) No.567, Revenue and Disaster Management Department, dated 17 September 2021.
- The date of the corrected government order remains 17 September 2021.
Scheme covered by the corrected reference
The abstract of G.O.(Ms) No.622 identifies the underlying subject as a special land scheme involving:
- Regularisation of encroachments on unobjectionable poramboke land.
- Relocation of encroachers occupying objectionable land.
- A scheme period that had ended on 30 August 2020 and was extended for one year to 30 August 2021.
- A further extension for one year from 31 August 2021.
G.O.(Ms) No.622 only corrects the government order number connected with that further extension. The one page document does not reproduce the detailed conditions of the special scheme.
Who may be affected
G.O.(Ms) No.622 is mainly relevant to people and officials checking records relating to the special encroachment regularisation and relocation scheme. Property buyers, owners or professionals who have been given a reference to G.O.(Ms) No.267 dated 17 September 2021 should note that the document directs readers to treat that reference as G.O.(Ms) No.567 of the same date.
The Revenue and Disaster Management Department sent the erratum to the Commissioner of Land Administration, all District Collectors, all District Revenue Officers and all departments of the Secretariat. Anyone seeking the substantive terms of the scheme would need the corrected government order, because G.O.(Ms) No.622 contains only the numbering correction and brief scheme context.
