Zheng Yongshun pointed out that the current information released by the authorities is too complicated, and he hopes that the authorities can provide a simplified version of the information or a "lazy bag" for the residents of subdivided flats to understand the regulations.
He said that the regulations provide a standard tenancy agreement, but some landlords and tenants are not clear, or they will continue to use the tenancy agreement model purchased at the stationery store, and they may fall into the legal net by mistake.
He also pointed out that the authorities have set up 6 district service teams to publicize the ordinance, but many residents in subdivided housing asked about legal questions, and the service teams were unable to answer them. He urged the authorities to provide the service teams with more legal support.
In addition, Cheng Wing-shun pointed out that the Rating and Valuation Department is responsible for the implementation of the ordinance, but some citizens called the Rating and Valuation Department to inquire, and the other party asked the public to inquire with the Housing Department, thinking that Chen Fan should clearly explain his responsibilities to the Rating and Valuation Department.
Zheng Yongshun worried that only random inspections could not ensure the effectiveness of the regulations, and urged the authorities to take the initiative to inspect whether there were any violations. Chen Fan promised to take the initiative to inspect after the regulations were implemented for a period of time.
