Chapter V: The Cancellation of the Land Development

In the case where the land developer intends to cancel the land development, the land developer shall submit an application to the Changwad Land Official or the Branch Changwad Land Official in the locality in which that land is situated.

The application for the cancellation of the land development shall be in accordance with the rules, procedures and conditions prescribed in the Ministerial Regulation.

The Changwad Land Official or the Branch Changwad Land Official shall post the application for the cancellation of the land development in a conspicuous place at the Changwad Land Office or the Branch Land Office, the Office of the land developer, the site of the land to be developed, the Amphoe Office, and the Office of the Tambon Administrative Organization for the period of sixty days. The land developer shall also publish it in a newspaper widely circulated in that locality for not less than seven days and notify it in writing to purchasers of the developed land.

The person who has interest incidental to the land development and intends to raise an objection to the application for the cancellation of the land development shall submit an objection to the Changwad Land Official or the Branch Changwad Land Official within thirty days as from the expiration of the time within which the posture under section 55 is to be made.

If no person raises an objection within the time under paragraph one, the Changwad Land Official or the Branch Changwad Land Official shall refer the matter to the Commission for the purpose of issuing an order cancelling the land development.

In the case where a purchaser of the developed land raises an objection, the Changwad Land Official or the Branch Changwad Land Official shall cancel the application for the cancellation of the land development. But, if there is an objection by a person who is not a purchaser of the developed land, the Changwad Land Official or the Branch Changwad Land Official shall refer the application for the cancellation of the land development and the objection to the Commission for consideration.

The land developer or the person making an objection may appeal against the decision of the Commission under paragraph three of the Central Land Development Commission within thirty days as from the date the notification of the decision is received.

When the Commission issues an order of cancellation of the land development, the license issued under section 27 shall be cancelled accordingly.
