Sophie HuiPublic housing tenants who litter, cause noise nuisance, and obstruct corridors three times will be kicked out as the Housing Authority will implement a more stringent marking scheme for estate management enforcement starting next Monday. Under the stricter marking scheme, penalty points for nine misdeeds related to environmental hygiene, public safety and serious breaches of tenancy agreements will be increased. Under the marking scheme, tenants of public rental housing or interim housing who have been allotted 16 points within two years, will have their tenancy terminated. It means tenants who breached the rules for three times within two years will be kicked out from their flats. Penalty points will be increased from the current seven to 15 points.
