The Property Disposal Plan sets out the timing and process for the release of surplus Crown property managed by St Helena Government (SHG), as identified in the Property Disposal Register. Structured as a rolling five-year programme, the plan ensures a strategic and transparent approach to the disposal of Crown land and buildings.
The first two years provide detailed descriptions of each disposal, while future years are continuously assessed and updated to align with the Ministerial Vision, SHG’s strategic objectives, the Sustainable Economic Development Strategy 2023–2033, and the disposal objectives under the Property Disposal and Purchase Policy 2024 (PDPP 2024).
The plan actively markets opportunities to support economic growth and development in St Helena by:
• Releasing residential property to encourage home ownership, with incentives for first-time buyers.
• Making commercial land and buildings available for investment, business expansion, and tourism and leisure activities.
Beyond creating opportunities, the plan also promotes transparency by providing clear information on:
• When properties will be released.
• Estimated guide reserve values and disposal methods.
• Any special conditions attached to each property.
This ensures fair and open access to Crown property for potential investors, businesses, and individuals. The Property Service, part of SHG’s Economic Development Portfolio, leads the identification and disposal process in line with the PDPP 2024.
The process is overseen by the Minister for Economic Development, ensuring that all decisions align with SHG’s strategic priorities and objectives.
