7.01. The office is divided into three Branches: Land, Survey, and Planning, which are reported on under individual headings. During the year, the property market remained very active, and interest in real estate development, coupled with continuing work in connection with a number of major projects, particularly Urban Renewal proposals, the Mass Transport underground railway system, and the Long Term Road Study, resulted in a year of intense activity for all Branches.
7.02. Service on committees continued to make increasing demands on the time of senior staff. The weekly Land Meeting with representatives of the Secretariat and the Registrar General's Department, and the weekly P.W.D. Land Conference, supported by the fortnightly Building Conference and Crown Land Conference, handle all individual cases of sales of private land and special cases where the building permitted on a site is controlled by lease conditions, as well as deciding or advising on policy issues and sites for major Government projects. The other main inter-departmental committees on which officers of this sub-department serve are:
