On the evidence the court found the notice to quit was posted at the entrance in July 1971 and was displayed for the requisite period; accordingly s.7(3) was complied with, the Rent Ordinance procedure was effective and the plaintiffs' sub-tenancies were not preserved by non-compliance. The plaintiffs' claim for declaration and injunction was therefore dismissed; additionally the court held the Ordinance confers procedural (not substantive) protections on sub-tenants though they retain limited rights such as serving counter-notices and seeking relief against forfeiture.
