Module 2
National Land Administration Institutions (LAI)
The Module 2 corresponds to the first level of intervention of LAPs, i.e. national land administration institutions within which LAPs seek to promote more efficient, better quality services.
Intervention levels
This guide contains 5 modules, which allow users to proceed independently of the tool’s own logic. The modules contain numerous external hyperlinks to access a bank of technical documents of the FAO, World Bank and other additional information sources. They also contain internal hyperlinks for navigating between modules or for easy access to the tool’s glossary.
Selection of evaluation type
The information collection sources for carrying out the evaluation exercises proposed in the fact sheets in this module are the following:
Primary sources
- with service users, members of the institutions and other key players chosen according to the purpose of the proposed evaluation.
- of beneficiaries of RCT processes and users of services developed according to the aim of the proposed evaluation.
- , round tables, focus groups with users, specialist users or institution staff.
Secondary sources
- Databases (cadastral mapping, tenure regularization processes, socioeconomic studies, etc.).
- Institutional reports and accounts.
- Tenure information system reports (registers, cadastre, linked systems, etc.).
- studies – External consultation reports.
- IT , technical, financial and operational audits.
Guides and instruments
- and instruments for classifying primary and secondary information.
- Information and monitoring system combining primary and secondary information.
Related fact sheets and proposed information sources
A guide is given below to the most relevant information sources that can be used in evaluations of LAIs, depending on the expected scope, time and type of players.
Instruments accessible from the fact sheets
N° | Fact Sheets | Content | Instrument |
|---|---|---|---|
2.1 | Analysis of the cost and time of registration procedures. | Analysis of internal working time per type of procedure. Analysis of cost of internal procedures. User perception. | Institutional management reports.
Reports on evaluation of staff performance. IT system reports. Interviews with staff and users. Focus group with qualified users. |
2.2 | Registration mobility Index. | Monitoring of the average number of procedures per registration. |
|
2.3 | Analysis of institutional financial sustainability. | Income generated, volume of procedures. Covering operating costs. | Carry out an analysis of the sustainability of LAIs. Assessing the results of the actions and investments promoted through LAPs. |
2.4 | Regularization, clearing and titling. | Fair tenure regularization process implemented. | Present some of the options that can be used to determine, at different points in the project cycle, the efficiency and effectiveness of regularization, clearing and/or titling processes (RCT). These processes are carried out by the various LAIs through investment by LAPs. |
2.5 | Cost and time of cadastral mapping. | Financial sustainability at systemic and institutional level. Cadastral mapping and updating. | Evaluation of the efficiency of Cadastral Mapping Costs (CMC) for a comparison of direct administration models, carried out directly by the cadastral institution with human, technological and financial resources provided by the project, with the outsourced model which involves contracting specialist national or international firms. |
2.6 | Quality control of cadastral mapping. | Security and legal certainty. Greater percentage of territory covered by Land Administration Institutions (LAI). Cadastral mapping and updating. | Evaluate the efficiency and quality of quality control processes of cadastral mapping, an activity carried out by direct administration (institutions) or by outsourcing (contracting companies). |
2.7 | Monitoring of land tenure disputes. | Increase in the percentage of disputes managed and resolved. | Establish a system for recording disputes identified at different times during the setting up of the cadastre and report progress in resolving them. |
2.8 | Operation of cadastre-register linking systems. | Reduce the time and cost of transaction procedures or services. Provide reliable information on properties. Increase the efficiency of LAS staff. | Analyse the operationality and reliability of cadastre-register linking systems by evaluating the following:
