10. Balochistan Update
29th Feb 2012

11. Housing Land and Property Update
Identification of the most vulnerable beneficiaries for early recovery support is the priority.
Very few issues with land reported from the 2010 floods. Numbers of TSSU respondents reporting land related issues are also very low (<200 families). Agreement from landlords / forced migration is the biggest issue identified so far.
District reports indicate that landlords do not perceive the Katcha houses with DRR as permanent shelters
SC coordinating and collecting feedback from organisations active in SE Sindh from 2010 and 2011 through the District meetings
Recommendation 1: Continue to monitor and refer any specific reports of land issues from TSSU and DFP to the relevant organisations / authorities.
Recommendation 2: HLP experts to present at a SC TWIG session before the next SC meeting with the aim to develop joint guidelines on land issues for approval from the cluster.
