Volumetric Subdivision and Building Management Statements空間體積式分割及建築管理聲明

A volumetric format plan creates separately titled parcels by reference to three-dimensionally located bounding surfaces. It is a title device, not a buildingmanagement system. Where the resulting parcels remain physically interdependent, a Building Management Statement supplies the reciprocal access, support, shelter, services, insurance and cost-sharing arrangements needed for them to operate together. The plan creates the legal space; the BMS regulates the shared operation.空間體積式圖則按照以三維位置確定的界面，創設可獨立登記產權的空間地塊。它是產權工具，而不是建築管理制度。當分割後的地塊在實體上仍互相依存時，建築管理聲明會提供共同運作所需的相互通道、支承、遮蔽、服務、保險及成本分攤安排。圖則創設法律空間；BMS則規管共同運作。

5.1Historical background歷史背景

歷史背景Historical background

Early strata legislation was designed principally for apartments and units defined by the physical structure of a completed building. As projects became larger and mixed residential, retail, hotel, office, parking, transport and infrastructure uses, a single community titles scheme or wall-centre boundary system could be commercially restrictive. Developers, owners and lenders needed a way to separate major components vertically and horizontally while preserving reliable building-wide rights.早期分層產權法例主要為已落成大廈內、由實體結構界定的公寓及單元而設。隨着項目規模擴大，並混合住宅、零售、酒店、辦公室、停車、交通及基礎設施用途，單一社區產權項目或以牆身中心線劃界的制度可能在商業上過於局限。開發商、業主及貸款人需要可按垂直及水平方向分開主要組成，同時保留可靠的全幢大廈權利。

5.2How a volumetric format plan works空間體積式圖則如何運作

空間體積式圖則如何運作How a volumetric format plan works

• A volumetric lot is land and may have its own indefeasible title.
• It may be transferred, mortgaged or leased independently, subject to registered interests and transaction documents.
• Its boundary does not have to follow the centre of a physical wall, floor or ceiling.
• A volumetric plan may divide a lot already shown on a standard, building or volumetric format plan.
• The survey plan must be read with all title encumbrances, easements, allocations and the BMS.

• 空間體積式地塊屬土地，並可有其本身的不可推翻產權。
• 在受註冊權益及交易文件約束下，可獨立轉讓、抵押或租賃。
• 其界線毋須沿實體牆身、樓板或天花的中心線。
• 空間體積式圖則可再分割標準、建築格式或空間體積式圖則上的既有地塊。
• 測量圖則須與所有產權負擔、地役權、空間分配及BMS一併審閱。

5.3A typical mixed-use structure典型混合用途架構

典型混合用途架構A typical mixed-use structure

A developer may first create three large volumetric lots—for example, basement parking and services, a retail and hotel podium, and a residential tower. The residential tower lot may then be subdivided by a building format plan to create a community titles scheme. The retail lot may remain in one institutional ownership, while the hotel lot and basement infrastructure may be separately financed or operated.開發商可先建立三個大型空間體積式地塊，例如地庫停車及公用設施、零售與酒店基座，以及住宅塔樓。住宅塔樓地塊其後可再以建築格式圖則分割，成立社區產權項目。零售地塊可由單一機構持有，而酒店地塊及地庫基礎設施則可分別融資或營運。

Separate ownership does not separate the physical building. Foundations may support every component; fire stairs and loading docks may cross titles; chilled water, electricity, water, sewerage, data and fire systems may serve several lots; and façade, roof, waterproofing and structural repairs may benefit more than one owner. Those interfaces require a registered and operational governance layer.所有權分開，並不會令實體大廈分開。地基可能支承所有組成；消防樓梯及卸貨區可能跨越多個產權；冷凍水、電力、供水、排污、數據及消防系統可能服務多個地塊；外牆、屋頂、防水及結構維修亦可能惠及多名業主。因此，這些介面需要一套已註冊且可實際運作的治理制度。

5.4When a Building Management Statement may be registeredBMS可註冊的情況

BMS可註冊的情況When a Building Management Statement may be registered

Under sections 54A, 54AA and 54B of the Land Title Act 1994, a BMS identifies the lots to which it applies and contains reciprocal provisions benefiting and burdening those lots. The affected lots must generally relate to one or more buildings, form a single continuous area subject to the registrar’s limited exception, and comprise either at least two volumetric format lots or at least one volumetric format lot and one standard format lot. Every registered owner must sign the statement.依《1994年土地產權法》第54A、54AA及54B條，BMS須確認其適用地塊，並載有令該等地塊相互受益及負擔的條文。受影響地塊一般須與一幢或多幢大廈相關，並在註冊官的有限例外下形成單一連續土地範圍；同時須包括至少兩個空間體積式地塊，或至少一個空間體積式地塊及一個標準格式地塊。所有註冊業主均須簽署該聲明。

5.5Mandatory and optional BMS contentBMS強制及選擇性內容

BMS強制及選擇性內容Mandatory and optional BMS content

A right of access, support, shelter or another right in the nature of an easement can operate under the BMS without a separate registered easement. That statutory effect makes accurate drafting and plan alignment critical. The Titles Registry may record the statement without undertaking a complete legal or commercial review of every clause.通道、支承、遮蔽或其他具有地役權性質的權利，可依BMS運作，而毋須另行註冊地役權。此法定效力令條文準確及與圖則一致尤其重要。產權登記處可在沒有全面審查每項條文的法律或商業效力下登記該聲明。

5.8Registration, amendment and continuity註冊、修訂及延續

註冊、修訂及延續Registration, amendment and continuity

On registration, a reference to the BMS is recorded on the title for each affected lot and the statement binds successors in title. If the BMS applies to land within a community titles scheme, the body corporate is treated as the registered owner for signing purposes, the statement binds the scheme, and a valid management-group decision can bind the scheme. A buyer cannot assume that changing ownership or changing the scheme committee ends the arrangement.BMS註冊後，每個受影響地塊的產權均會記錄該聲明，並約束產權繼承人。如BMS適用於社區產權項目內的土地，就簽署而言，業主法人團體被視為註冊業主；該聲明約束項目，而有效的管理小組決定亦可約束項目。買方不可假設業主更替或委員會更換會終止該安排。

An amendment generally requires the signatures of all registered owners and cannot simply change the lots to which the BMS applies. Extinguishment and partial extinguishment carry owner and mortgagee-consent requirements, subject to statutory court-order exceptions. In a complex development, unanimity and lender consent can make future correction difficult and expensive.修訂一般需要所有註冊業主簽署，亦不能藉簡單修訂改變BMS適用的地塊。終止或部分終止通常須取得業主及抵押權人同意，但法定法院命令例外除外。在複雜發展中，全體同意及貸款人同意要求，可令日後糾正問題既困難又昂貴。

5.9Due diligence and drafting checklist盡職調查及起草清單

盡職調查及起草清單Due diligence and drafting checklist

• Obtain every current title, the registered volumetric plan, three-dimensional diagrams and all allocation sheets.
• Read the complete BMS, registered standard terms, amendments, easements and related development agreements.
• Reconcile every structural element, plant item, service route, access path and insurance obligation against the drawings.
• Test the cost formula for routine expenditure, capital replacement, defects, upgrades, emergencies and uninsured loss.

• 取得所有現行產權、註冊空間體積式圖則、三維圖及全部空間分配表。
• 審閱完整BMS、註冊標準條款、修訂、地役權及相關發展協議。
• 把每項結構元素、機電設備、服務路線、通道及保險義務與圖則核對。
• 測試日常支出、資本更換、缺陷、升級、緊急情況及未受保損失的成本公式。

• Review management-group membership, quorum, voting thresholds, conflicts, deadlock, delegation and emergency powers.
• Check budgets, levies, arrears, contracts, insurance, claims, minutes, disputes, defects and planned major works.
• For an off-the-plan purchase, compare the proposed BMS with the registered version and every change notice before settlement.
• For finance, confirm that access, support, services and insurance are sufficient for the lot to operate independently and retain value.

• 審查管理小組成員、法定人數、表決門檻、利益衝突、僵局、授權及緊急權力。
• 查核預算、管理費、欠款、契約、保險、索償、會議紀錄、爭議、缺陷及計劃重大工程。
• 購買樓花時，交割前須把擬議BMS與註冊版本及每份變更通知比較。
• 就融資而言，確認通道、支承、公用設施及保險足以令地塊獨立運作並維持價值。

5.10Three-dimensional boundary design and survey coordination三維界線設計及測量協調

三維界線設計及測量協調Three-dimensional boundary design and survey coordination

A volumetric lot is defined by surveyed bounding surfaces rather than by an informal description such as “the retail podium” or “the basement”. The title must be capable of being located in three dimensions. The legal design therefore begins with cadastral surveying, but it cannot be completed sensibly by the surveyor alone. The architect, structural engineer, services engineers, fire engineer, building certifier, developer, lawyer and intended operators must agree what should sit inside each title and what must cross a title boundary.空間體積式地塊由經測量的邊界面界定，而不是以「零售基座」或「地下室」等非正式描述界定。產權範圍必須可在三維空間中準確定位。因此，法律設計須由地籍測量開始，但不能只由測量師單獨完成。建築師、結構工程師、機電工程師、消防工程師、建築認證人、開發商、律師及預定營運者，均須共同確認哪些部分應納入各產權，以及哪些設施必須跨越產權界線。

The survey should use a stable horizontal and vertical datum, identify every upper, lower and side boundary, and explain irregular or stepped surfaces. Particular care is required where a slab, façade, transfer structure, waterproofing layer, riser, plant room or service zone crosses the intended boundary. A boundary placed through a critical plant may separate ownership from operational control; a boundary drawn without sufficient maintenance space may make replacement physically impossible. Three-dimensional diagrams assist readers, but they do not replace the registered plan or its survey information.測量圖則應採用穩定的水平及垂直基準，標示每個上界、下界及側界，並解釋不規則或階梯式邊界面。如樓板、外牆、轉換結構、防水層、管道井、機房或服務區跨越擬定界線，尤其需要審慎處理。若界線穿過關鍵設備，可能令所有權與營運控制分離；如沒有預留足夠維修空間，日後甚至可能無法更換設備。三維示意圖有助閱讀，但不能取代註冊圖則及其測量資料。

5.11From development approval to registered title由發展批准至註冊產權

由發展批准至註冊產權From development approval to registered title

Planning approval, building approval, the cadastral plan and the BMS perform different functions. Planning approval authorises development subject to conditions. Building approval addresses the proposed building work. The registered plan creates the legal lots. The BMS allocates reciprocal rights and obligations across those lots. None of these documents should be treated as a substitute for another.規劃批准、建築批准、地籍圖則及BMS各有不同功能。規劃批准在附帶條件下准許發展；建築批准處理擬建工程；註冊圖則創造法律地塊；BMS則分配各地塊之間的相互權利及義務。任何一份文件均不應被視為另一份文件的替代品。

A reliable registration pathway keeps the approved use, physical design, title boundaries and operating arrangements aligned. The plan must satisfy statutory survey and consent requirements, including relevant planning-body approval where required and the consent of affected registered mortgagees and interest holders. The BMS must identify eligible lots, be signed by all registered owners and be capable of operating with the final plan. Because the registrar is not obliged to conduct a complete validity or commercial review of the BMS, registration is not a quality assurance certificate for the transaction documents.可靠的註冊程序應令獲批用途、實體設計、產權界線及營運安排保持一致。圖則須符合測量及同意的法定要求，包括在適用情況下取得相關規劃機構批准，以及受影響的註冊抵押權人及權益持有人的同意。BMS須確認合資格地塊，由所有註冊業主簽署，並可與最終圖則共同運作。由於註冊官毋須全面審查BMS的有效性或商業內容，註冊本身並非交易文件的品質保證。

• Confirm all registered interests and required consents before fixing the lodgement sequence.
• Compare the execution version of the BMS with the version approved by owners, lenders and project stakeholders.
• Use a settlement condition requiring evidence of registration of the intended plan and BMS.

• 在確定遞交次序前，確認所有註冊權益及所需同意。
• 把BMS簽署版本與業主、貸款人及項目持份者批准的版本比較。
• 設定交割條件，要求提供擬定圖則及BMS已註冊的證明。

5.12Shared services, plant and utility infrastructure共用服務、機電設備及公用設施

共用服務、機電設備及公用設施Shared services, plant and utility infrastructure

Mixed-use buildings rarely have completely independent services. Electricity intake rooms, transformers, generators, fire pumps, hydrants, sprinklers, smoke control, lifts, chilled-water plant, water tanks, sewer, trade waste, telecommunications, security systems and building management systems may serve more than one volumetric lot. Section 54C therefore requires the BMS to contain provisions about the supply of services to lots.混合用途大廈的公用服務很少完全獨立。電力進線房、變壓器、發電機、消防泵、消防栓、灑水系統、排煙系統、升降機、冷凍水設備、水箱、排污、商業廢水、電訊、保安系統及大廈管理系統，均可能服務多個空間體積式地塊。因此，第54C條要求BMS載有向各地塊供應服務的條文。

A useful services schedule identifies the owner of each asset, the lots served, capacity reserved for each lot, operating standards, meter location, energy and water charges, planned maintenance, replacement responsibility and access rights. It should also deal with interruption, emergency isolation, contamination, cyber or control-system failure, capacity upgrades and connections for future stages. Where consumption can be measured, submetering may support a user-pays allocation; fixed capacity, standby systems and base-building plant may require a different formula.實用的服務附表應確認每項資產的業主、受服務地塊、各地塊獲保留的容量、營運標準、計量錶位置、能源及水費、計劃維修、更換責任及通道權。附表亦應處理服務中斷、緊急隔離、污染、網絡或控制系統故障、容量升級及未來分期接駁。如用量可量度，可按分錶採用用者自付方式；固定容量、備用系統及大廈基本設備則可能需要不同公式。

• Test shutdown, emergency isolation and replacement access before titles are sold.
• Distinguish consumption charges, capacity charges, standby costs and capital replacement.

• 在出售產權前測試停機、緊急隔離及更換設備的通道。
• 區分用量費、容量費、備用成本及資本更換成本。

5.13Access, support, shelter and building interfaces通道、支承、遮蔽及大廈介面

通道、支承、遮蔽及大廈介面Access, support, shelter and building interfaces

Separate titles remain physically interdependent. One lot may support another through columns, transfer beams, slabs or foundations. A podium roof may shelter the lot below while serving as a terrace for the lot above. Façade anchors, membranes, movement joints, fire stairs, lobbies and loading areas may sit on one title but protect or serve several. The BMS must address rights of access, support and shelter, and those rights may operate without a separate formal easement.獨立產權在實體上仍然互相依賴。一個地塊可透過柱、轉換樑、樓板或地基支承另一地塊；基座屋頂可遮蔽下層地塊，同時作為上層地塊的平台。外牆錨固件、防水膜、伸縮縫、消防樓梯、大廳及卸貨區可能位於一個產權內，但保護或服務多個地塊。BMS必須處理通道、支承及遮蔽權，而該等權利可在沒有另行正式地役權下運作。

The drafting should go beyond a general right to enter. It should identify who may enter, for what purpose, on what notice, at what time, with what safety controls, and who must reinstate damage. Emergency access should operate immediately. Planned access should coordinate with trading hours, hotel security, residential privacy and workplace safety. The BMS should also allocate inspection and maintenance responsibility for each interface and prevent an owner from altering structural support, waterproofing, fire separation or weather protection unilaterally.條文不應只籠統授予進入權，還應確認誰可進入、進入目的、通知期限、時間、安全控制，以及由誰修復損壞。緊急通道應可即時使用；計劃通道則須配合營業時間、酒店保安、住宅私隱及工作場所安全。BMS亦應分配每個介面的檢查及維修責任，並防止任何業主單方面改動結構支承、防水、消防分隔或抗風雨保護。

• Require consent before work affects support, shelter, waterproofing or fire integrity.

• 工程如影響支承、遮蔽、防水或消防完整性，須事先取得同意。

5.14Insurance, damage and reinstatement保險、損壞及重建

保險、損壞及重建Insurance, damage and reinstatement

The statutory requirement is for the BMS to contain insurance arrangements; it does not itself prescribe one universal policy model. A project may use a coordinated whole-building policy, separate policies for major components, or a combination. Whatever model is chosen must avoid gaps, double insurance, inconsistent valuations and competing control of a claim.法例要求BMS載有保險安排，但本身並沒有指定一種適用於所有項目的保單模式。項目可採用協調一致的全幢大廈保單、各主要部分的獨立保單，或兩者結合。無論採用哪種模式，均須避免保障缺口、重複投保、估值不一致及索償控制衝突。

The BMS should identify insured property, policyholder, insured parties, valuation method, premium allocation, deductibles, uninsured risks, claims authority and distribution of proceeds. It should provide a reinstatement decision process, including design changes required by law, business-interruption coordination, temporary works and the position if full reinstatement is impossible or uneconomic.BMS應確認受保財產、投保人、受保各方、估值方法、保費分攤、自負額、未受保風險、索償權限及賠款分配。亦應建立重建決策程序，包括法例要求的設計變更、營業中斷協調、臨時工程，以及如全面重建不可行或不合經濟效益時的處理。

5.15Cost allocation, budgets and levies成本分配、預算及管理費

成本分配、預算及管理費Cost allocation, budgets and levies

The BMS may provide for levies, the holding and expenditure of levy money, and property maintenance. Unlike a community titles scheme operating under a prescribed regulation module, the BMS cost model depends heavily on the registered BMS. A single percentage for every expense is simple, but it may become commercially unfair when services, floor areas, values, opening hours and replacement costs differ substantially.BMS可規定管理費、管理費款項的保管及支出，以及物業維修。與受指定規管模組規管的社區產權項目不同，BMS成本模式在很大程度上取決於註冊條文。所有支出採用同一百分比雖然簡單，但如服務、樓面面積、價值、營業時間及更換成本有重大差異，可能造成商業上不公平的結果。

A sophisticated allocation schedule separates soleuse costs, measurable consumption, reserved capacity, shared operating costs and long-term capital replacement. Different assets may use different drivers: metered demand, connected load, gross floor area, insured value, replacement value, frequency of use or direct causation. The BMS should state how annual budgets, special contributions, reserve accounts, arrears, interest, audit, tax invoices and year-end reconciliations are administered, while allowing expert determination where technical data is disputed.成熟的分配附表應區分專用成本、可量度用量、保留容量、共用營運成本及長期資本更換。不同資產可採用不同分配因素，例如計量需求、接駁負荷、總樓面面積、投保價值、更換價值、使用頻率或直接因果關係。BMS應規定年度預算、特別分攤、儲備帳戶、欠款、利息、審計、稅務發票及年終核算的管理方式；如技術數據有爭議，則可交由專家裁定。

5.16Management-group governance, authority and deadlock管理小組治理、權限及僵局

管理小組治理、權限及僵局Management-group governance, authority and deadlock

A BMS may establish a management group to coordinate the affected owners. The group is not automatically a body corporate, and its powers arise from the registered statement. The drafting must therefore identify representation, chairing, notice, quorum, voting, conflicts, delegation, banking, records and the limits of authority. Where a community titles scheme is affected, a valid management-group decision can bind the scheme under section 54I.BMS可設立管理小組協調受影響業主。該小組不會自動成為業主法人團體，其權力來自註冊聲明。因此，條文須確認代表、主席、通知、法定人數、投票、利益衝突、授權、銀行帳戶、紀錄及權限限制。如社區產權項目受BMS約束，有效的管理小組決定可依第54I條約束該項目。

Voting design should reflect the decision. Routine administration may justify one vote per affected lot; expenditure may be weighted by the relevant cost allocation; structural, insurance or redevelopment decisions may require a higher threshold. Reserved matters should identify what cannot be delegated. Deadlock provisions can move from senior representatives to mediation, expert determination for technical issues and court proceedings where necessary. An emergency power should permit immediate protective action but require prompt reporting and later financial review.投票制度應配合決策性質。日常行政可採每個受影響地塊一票；支出決定可按相關成本分配加權；結構、保險或重建決定則可能需要較高門檻。保留事項應明確列出不得授權的事項。僵局程序可由高級代表協商，繼而調解；技術問題可交專家裁定，必要時再進入法院程序。緊急權力應容許即時採取保護行動，但須迅速報告並在事後進行財務覆核。

5.17Contracts, procurement and operational records契約、採購及營運紀錄

契約、採購及營運紀錄Contracts, procurement and operational records

A BMS may establish the governance framework, but buildings operate through contracts. Facilities management, cleaning, security, fire services, lift maintenance, energy, waste, insurance broking, engineering and capital works may be procured for several lots together. The BMS should identify who may contract, which owners are liable, how the supplier is supervised and how costs are allocated.BMS可建立治理架構，但大廈仍須透過契約運作。設施管理、清潔、保安、消防服務、升降機維修、能源、廢物、保險經紀、工程顧問及資本工程，均可能由多個地塊共同採購。BMS應確認誰有權簽約、哪些業主承擔責任、如何監督供應商及如何分配成本。

Procurement provisions should address quotations, tenders, contract limits, related parties, performance standards, insurance, indemnities, variation, assignment and termination. The manager should maintain minutes, resolutions, budgets, contracts, invoices, asset registers, maintenance records, warranties, permits, incident reports and insurance material in a shared data room. Because owners and representatives change, the BMS should require document handover, access rights, retention periods and businesscontinuity arrangements.採購條文應處理報價、招標、契約金額限制、關聯方、履約標準、保險、彌償、變更、轉讓及終止。管理人應在共用資料室留存會議紀錄、決議、預算、契約、發票、資產登記冊、維修紀錄、保養、工作許可、事故報告及保險資料。由於業主及代表會更替，BMS應規定文件交接、查閱權、保存期限及業務持續安排。

5.18Future development, staged construction and change control未來發展、分期施工及變更控制

未來發展、分期施工及變更控制Future development, staged construction and change control

A BMS may address proposed future development, and the statutory scheme recognises that an affected lot may later be subdivided, with the statement then applying to the lots created. This flexibility supports staged towers and later community titles schemes, but it can also expose early owners to construction access, temporary services, changed capacity demands and prolonged developer influence.BMS可處理擬議未來發展，而法定制度亦承認受影響地塊可在日後再分割，屆時聲明將適用於新建立的地塊。此彈性有利於分期塔樓及日後成立社區產權項目，但亦可能令早期業主承受施工通道、臨時服務、容量需求改變及開發商長期影響。

Future-development rights should define the permitted works, maximum duration, affected areas, construction access, crane and hoarding rights, service diversions, temporary shutdowns, noise, dust, security, safety, insurance and rectification. Change-control provisions should distinguish minor technical updates from changes that increase cost, reduce service capacity, alter access, change voting power or prejudice an existing lot. Any unilateral developer power should be limited by objective conditions, notice, evidence, make-good obligations and protection of existing use.未來發展權應界定准許工程、最長期限、受影響範圍、施工通道、吊機及圍板權、服務改道、臨時停機、噪音、塵埃、保安、安全、保險及修復。變更控制條文應區分輕微技術更新與增加成本、降低服務容量、改變通道、改變投票權或損害現有地塊的變更。任何開發商單方權力均應受客觀條件、通知、證明、復原義務及現有用途保障所限制。

5.19Defects, emergencies and business continuity缺陷、緊急情況及業務持續

缺陷、緊急情況及業務持續Defects, emergencies and business continuity

A defect at a volumetric boundary can involve several legal and technical layers: the defective component may be owned by one lot, maintained by another party, accessed through a third lot and insured under a shared policy. Water ingress, façade failure, firesystem defects, structural movement and service interruption therefore require a coordinated response rather than a single-title analysis.空間體積式界線上的缺陷可能涉及多個法律及技術層次：有缺陷的構件可由一個地塊擁有、由另一方維修、須經第三個地塊進入，並由共用保單承保。因此，滲水、外牆失效、消防系統缺陷、結構移動及服務中斷均須協調處理，而不能只分析單一產權。

The BMS should establish immediate notification, emergency entry, temporary protection, expert appointment, evidence preservation and cost-reservation procedures. It should distinguish emergency mitigation from final responsibility: the party authorised to stop damage should not automatically bear the ultimate cost. A building-wide incident plan should identify decision-makers, contacts, isolation points, alternative access, resident and tenant communications, regulatory notifications and restoration priorities. Root-cause and responsibility can then be determined after the asset is safe.BMS應建立即時通知、緊急進入、臨時保護、專家委任、證據保存及成本保留程序。條文須區分緊急減損與最終責任：獲授權制止損害的一方不應自動承擔最終成本。全幢事故計劃應確認決策者、聯絡人、隔離點、替代通道、住戶及租戶通訊、監管通知及復原優先次序。資產安全後，才確定根本原因及責任。

5.20Financing, leasing, sale and change of ownership融資、租賃、出售及業權變更

融資、租賃、出售及業權變更Financing, leasing, sale and change of ownership

A registered BMS is recorded against each affected title and binds successors. It can therefore affect financeability, valuation, lease structure, operating expenses and saleability. A lender will want the mortgaged lot to have reliable access, support, services and insurance, and will test whether material decisions or amendments could impair its security. A buyer must assess both the registered instrument and the way it has actually been administered.註冊BMS記錄於每個受影響產權並約束產權繼承人，因此可影響融資能力、估值、租賃架構、營運支出及可出售性。貸款人會要求抵押地塊具有可靠通道、支承、服務及保險，並評估重大決定或修訂會否損害其抵押保障。買方須同時評估註冊文件及其實際管理方式。

Transaction due diligence should obtain the current titles, plan, BMS, amendments, management-group minutes, budgets, contributions, arrears, contracts, insurance, claims, disputes, defects and future works. Leases and operating agreements should pass through relevant BMS obligations without attempting to transfer the owner’s ultimate registered responsibility. A sale contract should deal with disclosure, apportionment of contributions, outstanding decisions, transfer of records and any consent or accession mechanism required by the BMS or related contracts.交易盡職調查應取得現行產權、圖則、BMS、修訂、管理小組會議紀錄、預算、分攤款、欠款、契約、保險、索償、爭議、缺陷及未來工程。租約及營運協議應把相關BMS義務向下傳遞，但不應試圖轉移業主最終的註冊責任。出售契約應處理披露、分攤款調整、未完成決定、紀錄移交，以及BMS或相關契約要求的任何同意或加入機制。

5.21Worked mixed-use example混合用途實例

混合用途實例Worked mixed-use example

Assume a project contains four affected interests: Lot A is basement parking and central plant; Lot B is a retail podium; Lot C is a hotel tower; and Lot D is scheme land for a residential community titles scheme. The following example is illustrative only. Its purpose is to show why one ownership percentage rarely answers every operational question.假設項目包含四項受影響權益：A地塊為地庫停車及中央設備；B地塊為零售基座；C地塊為酒店塔樓；D地塊為住宅社區產權項目的項目土地。以下例子只供說明，旨在顯示單一所有權百分比通常不能回答所有營運問題。

The central fire pumps serve every lot and may be allocated by an engineered demand or replacement model. Retail loading and trade-waste systems principally serve Lot B and should not automatically be charged equally to hotel or residential owners. Chilled water may be charged by metered use plus reserved capacity. Foundations and transfer structures benefit every upper component, but inspection access may lie within Lot A. The podium waterproofing protects retail below and forms an outdoor area for the residential scheme above, requiring separate ownership, maintenance, access and causation rules.中央消防泵服務所有地塊，可按工程需求或更換成本模式分配。零售卸貨及商業廢水系統主要服務B地塊，不應自動由酒店或住宅業主平均分擔。冷凍水可按計量用量加保留容量收費。地基及轉換結構惠及所有上層部分，但檢查通道可能位於A地塊內。基座防水層保護下方零售空間，同時構成上方住宅項目的戶外地方，因此須分開處理所有權、維修、通道及因果責任。

5.22BMS drafting file, data room and periodic auditBMS起草檔案、資料室及定期審核

BMS起草檔案、資料室及定期審核BMS drafting file, data room and periodic audit

A complex BMS should be supported by a structured evidence file. The registered statement is the legal instrument, but its successful operation depends on coordinated drawings, asset schedules, cost models, insurance matrices, contracts and records. These materials should be assembled before registration and preserved for later owners, managers, lenders and advisers.複雜BMS應有具系統的證據檔案支持。註冊聲明是法律文件，但能否成功運作取決於已協調圖則、資產附表、成本模式、保險矩陣、契約及紀錄。該等資料應在註冊前整理，並為日後業主、管理人、貸款人及顧問保存。

The data room should contain the final plan and survey information, BMS and amendments, approval history, design drawings, commissioning records, asbuilt information, asset and interface registers, service capacity data, allocation calculations, insurance and valuation material, warranties, contracts, minutes, budgets, levies, disputes and incident records. The management group should conduct an annual administrative audit and a periodic technical review, with additional review after major damage, a material change of use, a new development stage or proposed amendment.資料室應包括最終圖則及測量資料、BMS及修訂、批准歷史、設計圖、調試紀錄、竣工資料、資產及介面登記冊、服務容量數據、分配計算、保險及估值資料、保養、契約、會議紀錄、預算、管理費、爭議及事故紀錄。管理小組應每年進行行政審核，並定期作技術覆核；發生重大損壞、重大用途改變、新發展分期或擬議修訂後，亦應額外覆核。
