Setting long-range settlement plans

Context:
The First Habitat Conference (Vancouver 1976) called for countries to develop "long-range settlement plans, based on comprehensive national, ecological and demographic inventories". 20 years later, at the time of the Second Conference (Istanbul, 1996) few countries had established such plans; even fewer have set about "the public ownership and effective control of land in the public interest".
