The Hong Kong Government in some circumstances is also prepared to consider late payments to pre-1982 cases. The Buildings and Lands Department has considered the circumstances of Mr Lau's case. However the Department does not consider that Mr Lau's case merits exception. It takes the view there are no special circumstances which justify the delays in Mr Lau's attempts to obtain compensation. For example, Mr Lau failed to produce Letters of Administration for his father's land until 1983. Even then Mr Lau had ample opportunity to pursue his claim but did not do so until December 1987. The Department considers that there is no evidence to suggest that these delays were beyond Mr Lau's control. In the absence of such evidence sees no justification, at the present time, for any payment to be
made to Mr Lau.
