Non-native land shall not be alienated, whether by sale, gift, lease or otherwise, unless at least 6 weeks before the alienation notice thereof has been served on the Minister, who may inform the intended vendor that the Crown wishes to acquire the interest intended to be alienated.. Where the Minister and the vendor are unable to agree on terms of transfer the land in question shall be deemed for the purposes of the Crown Acquisition of Lands Ordinance to be required for a public purpose. ”Non-native land” means land owned by a person other than a native but does not include land owned by a local government council or by a society registered under the Cooperative Societies Ordinance which immediately prior to its alienation to the council or society, as the case may be, was owned by a native.
