(2) The rates specified under the heading “Reduced rate” for items 1 to 4 shall apply to all other flats. (3) In paragraph (1) — “authorised occupier” has the same meaning as in the Housing and Development Act (Cap.129); “essential occupier”, in relation to a flat sold by the Board, means any authorised occupier of the flat who, together with any lessee or other authorised occupier of the flat, will form the necessary family or social nucleus to qualify the lessee to purchase or to continue to own the flat; “tenant” means any tenant of the Board with respect to an entire flat.”. |
