On the court record
Marks how the courts police the procedural thresholds governing challenges to the housing regulator's approval of developer extensions of time, and the strict ninety-day judicial-review limit.
Pengawal Perumahan, Kementerian Perumahan dan Kerajaan Tempatan (the Housing Controller of the Ministry of Housing and Local Government) appears in the reported judgments as the housing regulator named as a respondent in judicial-review proceedings in the High Court (Mahkamah Tinggi), in matters brought by purchasers challenging extensions of time granted to developers for the delivery of vacant possession. Its presence marks a recurring class of administrative-law disputes over the regulator's power to relieve developers of delivery deadlines.
The matters follow a consistent pattern. Purchasers of housing units apply for leave to commence judicial review to challenge the Ministry's decisions approving extensions of time for the delivery of vacant possession, some of the extensions having been granted under the Temporary Measures for Reducing the Impact of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Act 2020. The recurring threshold contest is over time: the Attorney General's Chambers objected that the applications were filed beyond the ninety-day limit in Order 53 rule 3(6) of the Rules of Court 2012, while the applicants contended that time ran from the deemed rejection of an appeal after a fourteen-day notice, or sought an extension of time for the delay.
The court's task in these matters was to determine whether the omission to respond to a purchaser's letter within the stipulated period amounted to a decision that could be reviewed, whether the judicial review was filed within ninety days of the expiry of that period, and, where the application was late, whether an extension of time should be granted in the absence of any reason for the delay — with attention to whether a review would be an exercise in futility. Across the decisions, the housing controller illustrates how the courts police the procedural thresholds governing challenges to the regulator's approval of developer extensions of time, and the significance of the strict ninety-day limit in judicial-review proceedings against a public authority.
