Friday, September 8, 1972
This four-storey pre-war building, at No. 506 Shanghai Street, was
inspected following a complaint from a tenant,
It was found that load-bearing brick piers in the verandah were
seriously fractured with evidence of recent movement indicating that there is
a risk of collapse.
Notice of intention to apply for a closure order in Kowloon District
Court at 9.30 a.m. on September 26 was posted today.
"NOTICE TO QUIT" FORM REVISED
The Commissioner of Rating and Valuation today announced that he has
specified a revised Notice to Quit, Form RC11, under the Rent Increases
(Domestic Premises) Control Ordinance.
Copies of the new form are now available at the offices of the Rating
and Valuation Department, Public Enquiry Counters, Tenancy Inquiry Bureaux
and District Offices of the New Territories Administration.
The change has been necessitated because it is now considered that
certain provisions printed on the existing form are set out in a manner which
does not adequately comply with the Ordinance.
The Commissioner added that in future only the new form should be
used for serving a Notice to Quit under the ordinance as the previous form has
been revoked.
