- HCA1333/2011
On proper construction the DMC did not confer on the plaintiff a right to connect to the building's main water and drainage pipes by unilateral installations across common parts; the IO's refusal was reasonable because the plaintiff sought to carry out works that were illegal or required statutory approval, the applications were inaccurate, and the works posed safety/structural and management risks; the 2010 drilling works would not be automatically exempt under the current Minor Works/DEW regime and likely require BD approval; claim dismissed.
