FOUR WAYS TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM OF A SETTLEMENT ON PRIVATE LAND IN BOSNIA
AND HERZEGOVINA10
The legal regulation o settlements located on private land pose various problems that require
solutions. In order to identiy the best solution in a specifc case, it is necessary to consult the
municipality, the owners, and the Roma community. Possible ways are as ollows:
The municipality or residents o an inormal settlement purchase the land rom the private
owner on behal o the whole settlement;
The residents obtain permission rom the owner to reside on the land through lawul rental or
leasehold agreements;
The residents may in some cases acquire ownership o the land through court procedures,
provided that they constructed the buildings in good aith and that the land owner knew they
were using the land, as well as meeting additional criteria defned in the law;
Residents may also seek the expropriation o the private property they reside on through the
Municipal Assembly, on the basis o public interest, and then request that it be reallocated
under public competition. However, the reallocation process cannot guarantee that the land
would then be allocated to the Roma currently residing on it.

ROMA HOUSING UPGRADING IS NOT POSSIBLE USING CURRENT LEGISLATION
The Inter-Ethnic Initiative or Human Rights Foundation stressed in October 200 the ollowing:
A rights-based approach to solving housing problems and improving living conditions in Ro-
many neighbourhoods is impossible on the basis o current territorial planning legislation.15
This
statement is true or many countries because legislation was developed without awareness o
the necessity or an inclusive approach.
