The court found a clear binding agreement and legitimate expectation evidenced by the defendant's representation and plaintiffs' surrender of possession; Specific Relief Act sections 44 and 45 permit orders against public officers; plaintiffs retained locus because licences lapsed due to defendant's own failure; COVID-19 justified some delay but not all; therefore specific performance granted, costs awarded, and damages to be assessed from 1 November 2021 until completion.
