The importance of land delivery institutions (LDIs) in facilitating access to land by providing different land delivery channel (LDCs) has long been established in literature. However, understanding of the nature of LDIs has been in piecemeal with focus on either the organisational structure of the LDIs, institutional mechanism or the characteristics of land being supplied by the formal or informal LDIs. There has also been the dichotomous classification of land delivery channels as being formal or informal. Such previous analyses which focused on one particular segment of the land delivery system do not reflect the multi-dimensional issues associated with LDIs and LDCs and might encourage formation of policies that are not encompassing and difficult to implement. It is in this regard that this paper provides a holistic view of land delivery institutions and channels. This is with a view to improving understanding of the land delivery systems. By using desktop analysis of past authors’ submissions, a conceptual framework derived from the theory of new institutional economic, and case study analysis of land delivery institutions and channels in Lagos Nigeria. this paper provides a framework for analysis of LDIs and LDCs from a tripartite perspective. The paper presents an in-depth examination of formal, semi-formal and informal land delivery channels and their respective LDIs through the prism of organisational structure of LDIs, their institutional mechanisms and the characteristics of land being supplied by the LDIs.
