mechanisms to prevent and resolve the contentious areas and issues at
the national and field levels. LRA comes in as the agency overseeing the
Registry of Deeds, the government office that administers the Torrens
system of registration of real estate ownership in the country and judicially
confirms and records all land titles in government archives.
The purpose of the JAO is to facilitate and coordinate the process of
registration of the ancestral domain/land titles issued by NCIP with the
other titling agencies: DENR-LMB, DAR, and DOJ-LRA to avoid overlap of
titles under the registration regime and comply with section 56 of the IPRA
to respect prior, existing rights within ancestral domains/lands. The main
concern of the JAO is to prescribe a process for the preparation of the map
projection to identify titled lands, which might overlap with CADT/CALTs.
This information is only available and under the technical jurisdiction of
the DENR-LMB. The JAO covers all land tenurial and utilization instruments
that are issued by the DAR, DENR, and the NCIP and the registration thereof
by the LRA.
The following mandates and jurisdictional limits are given by the JAO to the
DENR, NCIP, DAR, and the LRA:
For the DENR:
Their jurisdiction includes all lands of the public domain including those
used for agricultural purposes, the forest zone, timberlands, national park,
protected areas and mineral lands. The DENR has the main responsibility
for the conservation, protection and development of the natural resources
and has the authority to issue permits and licenses for the utilization,
exploitation, and management of these lands.
