Detail Programme (1): Land Administration 2000–01 2001–02 2001–02 2002–03 (Actual) (Approved) (Revised) (Estimate) Financial provision ($m) 1,041.7 1,152.0 1,149.0 1,242.8 (+10.6%) (–0.3%) (+8.2%) Aim 2 The aim is to administer land in Hong Kong by disposing of land; acquiring private land and clearing private and government land required for the implementation of public works and other projects; managing government leases and unleased land and certain buildings held by the Administration; re-granting and modifying leases; and maintaining man- made slopes on unallocated and unleased government land. Brief Description 3 The Lands Department disposes of land through the Land Sale Programme. It acquires private land and clears private and government land required for public works projects or other approved schemes. It is also responsible for managing government leases to ensure compliance with the lease conditions; managing government land to ensure that it is not illegally occupied; managing certain buildings or units in buildings held by the Administration; extending government leases; modifying conditions in existing leases; and maintaining man-made slopes on unallocated and unleased government land. 4 A Land Sale Programme for 2001–02 and a Land Development Programme for 2002–03 to 2005–06 providing information on hectares of land available for disposal for housing and non-housing developments were announced in February 2001. The Land Sale Programme for 2001–02 comprised a timetable of specific sites for auction and tender, and an Application List in respect of sites which could be put up for auction or tender upon application. During 2001, 15 lots were disposed of by auction/tender, 11 of which were sold in accordance with the published timetable for auction/tender of specific sites, and the remaining four sites were taken from the Application List as a result of applications from developers. Fewer modification cases were completed due to market sentiments. 5 In 2001, the total area resumed was in response to demand for land for the Public Works Programme and other projects. The department finalised resumption work associated with West Rail (Phase I), and continued with work on outstanding compensation claims from the earlier resumptions and preparatory work on the Sheung Shui to Lok Ma Chau Spur Line. The department achieved better than anticipated results in clearing up existing environmental blackspots due to improved efficiency arising from human resource management initiatives. 6 The key performance measures in respect of land administration are: Targets 2000 2001 2002 Target (Actual) (Actual) (Plan) Land Disposal land disposal (ha)......................................... 133 228 113 117 small houses (cases) .................................... 1 200 1 407 1 000 1 000 Head 91 — LANDS DEPARTMENT 2000 2001 2002 Target (Actual) (Actual) (Plan) Lease Modifications (non small house cases) issue letter of reply to application within three weeks.............................................. 100% 100% 100% 100% issue letter of offer of provisional basic terms (without premium)/rejection/ indicating in-principle agreement within 24 weeks from receipt of application ............................................... 100% 100% 100% 100% issue legal document for execution within 12 weeks from receipt of a binding acceptance of the final basic terms and premium offer.......................................... 100% 100% 100% 100% Land Acquisition offers of compensation based on ex-gratia rates made within 4 weeks from the date of gazette notice of resumption of agricultural land in N.T. .......................... 100% 100% 100% 100% cheques for compensation made available for collection within 4 weeks from receipt of acceptance by the department proof of legal title (for agricultural land cases in N.T.)................ 100% 100% 100% 100% offer of compensation or invitation to claims made within 3 weeks from land reversion.................................................. 100% 100% 100% 100% Indicators 2000 2001 2002 (Actual) (Actual) (Estimate) Land Disposal land sale programme land sold (auction and tender) (ha).................................. 31 10 10 no. of flats ....................................................................... 16 334 2 130 5 500 private treaty grants land granted (ha) ............................................................. 194α 92† 95 no. of flats (including both private and subsidised home ownership housing projects)¥ ........................... 5 779 15 686 15 000 land let by short term tenancy (ha)........................................... 56 56 50 Lease Variations lease modifications and exchanges (no. of cases) .................... 203 163 150 (no. of flats).............................................................................. 7 537 7 769 5 000 processing of applications from indigenous villagers for rent concession (no. of lots/tenements) ............................... 16 207 29 801 30 000 Land Acquisition Public Works Programme projects (ha) ................................... 19.8 41.7 61.1 railway development projects (ha)........................................... 0.2 2.9 19.0 urban renewal projects (no. of property interests).................... 164 — — Rural Planning and Improvement Strategy/Village Improvement (ha) ................................................................ 5.0 0.4 3.4 total acquisition/clearance costs ($m) ...................................... 1,581 2,703 1,689 Land Management lease enforcement cases ........................................................... 638 600 600 rebuilding of temporary domestic structures............................ 130 75 75 government sites cleared and guardedφ ................................... 2 477 2 517 2 500 clearance of environmental black spots on private and government land in the New Territories (N.T.)

  • Exploring Coordinative Mechanisms for Environmental Governance in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area: an Ecology of Games Framework
    sustainability Article Exploring Coordinative Mechanisms for Environmental Governance in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area: An Ecology of Games Framework Wenjie Zhou and Rui Mu * Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Dalian University of Technology, Dalian 116024, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-0411-8470-7479 Received: 15 May 2019; Accepted: 30 May 2019; Published: 3 June 2019 Abstract: To solve regional environmental problems, there is a trend of establishing urban agglomerations and formulating cooperative policy institutions in China. The extant studies on policy institutions largely focus on the coordinative mechanisms of multiple actors within one single institution. Only a few studies have tried to understand how different policy institutions are interlinked and mutually affected to influence actors’ decisions and problem resolutions. This article applies a network-based analytical approach and adopts the Ecology of Games Framework to explore how regional environmental governance is coordinated in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. It was found that coordinative mechanisms in regional environmental governance can happen around three elements: policy institutions, policy actors, and policy issues. Policy institutions tend to serve as an umbrella for many diverse and interdependent activities and actors within individual institutions. Additionally, positive externalities emerging between different policy institutions perform as coordinators across institutions. For actors, state-level actors usually play as facilitators of policy institutions while they are not active in participating in policy games in later phases; it is regional actors, particularly from Guangdong, that are active in the operation of policy institutions. For policy issues, they emerge because they are often tied with each other, and some of them play as the common ground for seemly separating policy institutions.

A list of the standard plumbing designs for village type houses is given in Appendix A and drawings of the standard designs could be found at the official websites of relevant LP associations/institutions as given in Appendix B. They are the copyright owners of these standard design drawings and have agreed to share these designs for use by LPs in application for water supplies, exchange of technical knowledge and educational purposes. Electronic Submission 2. To enhance the efficiency of processing applications for water supplies to village type houses, the Water Supplies Department (WSD) will allow electronic 2 submission for the application for water supply for new village type houses adopting standard plumbing designs in plumbing proposals.

  • Chapter 3 Land Matters
    Project Administration Handbook for Civil Engineering Works 2020 Edition CHAPTER 3 LAND MATTERS The parts of the PAH shown in blue and bold should only be updated by Works Branch of Development Bureau. Rev Issue Date Amendment Incorporated First Issue October 2020 NA Chapter 3 (Rev. 0) 1 Project Administration Handbook for Civil Engineering Works 2020 Edition SYNOPSIS This chapter sets out the procedures for the acquisition and control of land required for projects managed by CEDD, DSD, HyD and WSD. It does not cover the land requirements of quasi-government bodies such as the MTR Corporation Limited (MTRCL), but it describes the procedures necessary to avoid any possible interference with these land requirements. The authority for land matters is the Director of Lands (D of L) who exercises his duties through the respective District Lands Offices (DLOs). The role of CEDD, DSD, HyD and WSD in land matters is either as a works department requiring the temporary use of the site and associated areas, or in some instances as the operation department requiring the permanent use of the land. Because of the large number of departments that have a pertinent interest in land matters, it is necessary for formal procedures for the reservation, allocation, acquisition and clearance of land to be followed before any land can be made available for works to proceed. This chapter does not give details of procedures to be followed by the Lands Department (LandsD), which are covered by Land Instructions (LIs). However, reflections have been made to concur with the procedures laid down in the LIs.
