LISAG President, Kwame Tenadu Snr<\/strong><\/p>\nLicensed Surveyors Association of Ghana (LISAG) has held its
\nannual general meeting and maiden seminar in Accra for its members to find
\nstrategies to be more relevant in the current government\u2019s policy objective of
\n\u201cGhana Beyond Aid\u201d.<\/p>\n
It was held under the theme: \u201cLand Ownership and Registration: The
\nRole of the Licensed Surveyor\u201d.<\/p>\n
It brought\u00a0together some accomplished\u00a0land surveyors in
\nthe country including the Executive Secretary of the\u00a0Lands Commission,
\nAlhaji Sulemana Mahama, and a consultant on survey, Prof. Ing. Collins Fosu, and
\na former Director of Surveys, as well as Alhaji Iddrisu Abu, Kumbung Naa Yiri
\n(II), the Paramount Chief of the Kumbungu Traditional Area.<\/p>\n
Speaking at the opening ceremony of the two-day event at the
\nPremier Western Hotel at Airport in Accra, the President of LISAG, Kwame Tenadu
\nSnr, said that there was the urgent need for local strategy and workforce to be
\nadopted as a result of endless incidents of land disputes and years of trials
\nand expensive adventure relying largely on foreign advice and borrowed capital
\nfor land reforms in the country.<\/p>\n
The LISAG president said as land remains the most-sought-after
\nproperty, the role of the surveyor had become more important to help eliminate
\nthe numerous indeterminate land boundaries which are seriously undermining the
\ndevelopments of public and private landed properties.<\/p>\n
Mr. Tenadu Snr. said every licensed surveyor after carrying out a
\nsurvey on any parcel of land that had not been surveyed would deliver to the
\nDirector of Surveys for examination and filing of a plan showing the boundaries
\nof the parcel of land, as well as all original records of the survey covering
\nthe area of the plan and other information which the survey considers as
\nimportant.<\/p>\n
He asked members of the public to always engage the services of
\nqualified and certified members of LISAG to conduct their land surveys in order
\nto avoid the situations where conflicts on land boundaries and the proper registration
\nof the land would arise.<\/p>\n
\u201cLISAG aims to make a positive impact on surveying and mapping in
\nGhana,\u201d he said stressing that the association would further develop strategies
\nto ensure that members of the association deliver value to all stakeholders and
\nesteemed customers in the country.<\/p>\n
A Supreme Court Judge, Justice Gabriel Pwamang, who was the guest
\nspeaker at the event, asked the licensed surveyors to do proper introspection
\nof themselves as far as ethical standards were concerned.<\/p>\n
He said the role of the survey was very much critical to the
\nsocio-economic development of the country, but some of the practitioners had
\nresorted to unethical behaviour where they do not conduct any survey but charge
\nmoney to sign up to documents covering land survey and registration.<\/p>\n
He pleaded with the executive members of the association to put in
\nplace a mechanism that would mete out punishment to such unprofessional and
\nunethical surveyors whose activities are denting the image of the association.<\/p>\n
The Executive Secretary of the Lands Commission, Alhaji Mahama,
\nadmonished the association to form effective collaboration with the commission
\nin the area of land administration and registration.<\/p>\n
