The Court of Appeal held that the provision in the Supreme Court Ordinance (s.F(3)(b)/s.21F) is mandatory, not procedural or discretionary, and that by s.10(1) of the Lands Tribunal Ordinance the Lands Tribunal must exercise that mandatory power when making an order for possession for non-payment of rent; failure to provide the statutory period and opportunity to pay and reinstate renders the possession order invalid, and the Lands Tribunal's possession order of 10 December 1997 was set aside.
