Deceased Flat Owners with Arrears Owed to Town Councils

Mr Cai Yinzhou asked the Minister for National Development (a) how many deceased flat owners currently owe arrears to Town Councils; (b) what proportion of these cases involve arrears of more than nine months; and (c) what is the total value of such arrears owed by deceased owners.

Mr Chee Hong Tat: The Ministry of National Development monitors Town Councils' overall arrears rates but does not have data to the level of granularity requested by the Member.
