Acquisition of Real Estate and Land by the Ministry of Energy from the Perspective of Statutory Law

Abstract

The Ministry of Energy is one of the most important ministries, as it is responsible for providing vital infrastructure such as electricity and water. Accordingly, it may be necessary to acquire private lands and properties in order to develop services. The issue of acquisition of real estate and land by the Ministry of Energy is an important issue that needs to be discussed and examined. An important question raised and examined in this article is what is the statutory law approach to the acquisition of real estate and land? This article is descriptive-analytical and uses a library method to examine the question in question. The results showed that, based on the public interest, if the acquisition of land brings public good and benefit, there is a possibility of acquiring land, and the rule of no harm based on public interest precedes the rule of acquiescence. The public interest is the intersection point of the rule of no harm and the rule of acquiescence as the basis of private ownership. Based on the public interest, if the acquisition of land brings public good and benefit, there is a possibility of acquiring land, and the rule of no harm based on public interest takes precedence over the rule of acquiescence. At the same time, due to the importance and value of private property rights, the transfer and acquisition of land should be carried out by paying a fair price to the land owner.
