5. WECO Textiles Manufacturers Ltd.
(Serial No. 5, para. 7 of Memorandum)
Weco Textiles Manufacturers Ltd. is the current tenant of Lot 719RP in
DD 450 which it is proposed to resume under the scheme. The tenancy agreement
with Tai Loong Weaving and Dyeing Factory Ltd., the registered owner, commenced
on 1 March 1984 and is for a period of 3 years, expiring on 28 February 1987.
The company has not in fact objected to the works, merely advised of its
intention to lodge claims for compensation on the basis of the resumption
proceeding. Any claims submitted will be considered under the Roads (Works, Use
and Compensation) Ordinance.
After consultation with CO/KT and C for L it has been established that
approximately 60 workers would be affected by the resumption were it to
proceed. C for L also advised that within the manufacturing industries in the
Tsuen Wan and Kwai Chung Districts there have been an average of 1500 vacancies
per month during the second quarter of 1986. Employment opportunities for the
affected workers therefore appear reasonable.
