The
Land
Institute was founded in 1966
by a group of surveyors, valuers, lawyers and academics, many of
whom were already eminent in their own specialisations and with land
use their common link. Their combined expertise was harnessed to form
what is probably the first multi-discipline professional body in the
United Kingdom, which responds when appropriate to consultative
documents issued by the Department of the Environment, the Law
Commission and other Government Departments.
One
of the stated objects of the Land Institute is "the
advancement of education for the public benefit of all persons in
the law, economics, public and local administration, town and country
planning and other relevant fields associated with the land." The
Land Institute has also produced many works of reference both for
members and the general public, the latest being "Arbitration -
A Practitioner's Guide", which has recently been selected as
approved course material in the College of Estate Managements book list.
Meanwhile,
the Land Institute continues to reflect the broadest representation
of those engaged in land use and its related activities; surveyors,
valuers, property agents, lawyers, architects, town planners, housing
managers and rating officers are examples of some of those who may
derive benefit from a multi-discipline corporate identity.
