The court found the primary user to be domestic because the family lived in the premises with kitchen, bathroom and bedrooms, the office use was secondary, the Occupation Permit indicated domestic use and the Commissioner’s certificate recorded domestic primary user; therefore the tenancy is a domestic tenancy protected by the Rent Increases (Domestic Premises) Control Ordinance and the plaintiff’s claim for possession failed.
