The Secretary lawfully recommended resumption and the Chief Executive in Council lawfully ordered resumption: valuation disputes and alleged low offers are not amenable to judicial review but to the Lands Resumption Ordinance machinery; there was no unlawful consultation in breach of s.15(5) because departmental valuation work formed part of the Secretary's decision‑making (not prohibited consultation); the Secretary's reasons (and subsequent explanations) satisfied any legitimate expectation and were adequate; all applications dismissed.
