Surrenders of Land to Crown
50. 346 Deeds of Surrender comprising 472 lots or sections of lots were prepared and put through by the Land Office. Most of these surrenders were required in connection with exchanges negotiated by Government for public purposes and with regrants of land. Many of the remaining surrenders were free surrenders of portions of scavenging lanes being taken over by the Government. Only in a relatively small number of cases, mostly having to do with street widening, was anything paid by Government for the surrender. The total amount of compensa- tion paid for surrenders of land in 1968-69 was $1,224,914, as compared with the total of $4,891,809 in 1967-68.
Re-entries upon land by Crown
51. Under the provisions of the Crown Rights (Re-entry) Ordinance, land may be re-entered upon by the Crown for the breach of any covenant in the Crown lease thereof, or for the breach of any condition or stipulation of any tenancy thereof, by the registration in the Land Office of a Memorial of Re-entry signed by an officer duly authorized by the Governor. The land is thereupon re-vested in the Crown, but the lessee may petition the Supreme Court or the Governor in Council for relief against forfeiture.
