The Lands Department said today that it registered 12 lease modifications and two land exchanges in the Land Registry during the quarter ending last month, adding that two of the former were technical changes that did not involve premiums.

Among the 14 land transactions registered, three involved locations on Hong Kong Island, six were in Kowloon and five in the New Territories.

During the period, one other lot was granted by private treaty for an electricity substation in Kwun Tong.

The land transactions registered realised a total land premium of about $3.57 billion.
