    Citation
    HAR BOON CHER v. HUNG FAT CHEUNG INVESTORS LTD
    Court
    Lands Tribunal
    Case number
    LDNT10/2004

    The Tribunal accepted the Respondent's redevelopment intention as sufficiently credible to justify curtailing the previous two-year terms but found it unfair to require the five applicants to vacate earlier than the ground floor tenants; accordingly tenancies were fixed from 1 February 2004 up to 31 July 2005, market rents for LDNT 8/2004 and LDNT 10/2004 were determined by adjusted comparables at HK$14,000 and HK$10,000 per month respectively (exclusive of government rent, management fee and rates), and the Tribunal declined to adjudicate on management fee quantum.
