Mr. Lee Yu-tai:- Sir, may I refer to paragraph 1 of the answer and
request the Secretary for District administration to inform this
Council whether or not Government is completely satisfied with the
present situation and how about deeds of covenant for old buildings?
Secretary for District Administration:- Sir, deeds of mutual covenant
are contracts between consenting parties and some form of retrospective
legislation will be required if it is to apply to the existing deeds of
mutual covenant. It involves a great deal of work and therefore as a
start, intention is to start on a new leasehold of non-industrial buildings.
