sec.11 Return of land previously divested under 1985 Land Holding Act
On the commencement of this section, land within a trust area that, under the 1985 Land Holding Act , section 10 (1) or (2) divested from, or passed from the control of, an entity, becomes vested in the entity that is currently the trustee of the trust area, or the part of the trust area, in which the land is located in the same way it would have been vested if it had not been divested.
