The 1961 communications did not create proprietary rights or an irrevocable licence; residents held revocable occupation permits under the Resettlement Ordinance terminable on notice; there was no inducement or unconscionable conduct sufficient to found proprietary estoppel or entitlement to damages; the notices to quit were valid and the appeals must be dismissed.
