Mike holds a salesperson’s licence and has entered the estate agency trade for three years. He is now 22 years old. He has recently applied for the post of manager offered by Excellence Estate Agency Limited (“Excellence Estate Agency”) which needs to appoint a manager for the effective and separate control of the business of its branch office in compliance with the Estate Agents Ordinance. Excellence Estate Agency informed Mike subsequently that according to the Estate Agents Ordinance, he was not qualified for the post. Which of the following is probably the reason?  \nA. Mike is not a university graduate.  \nB. Mike has less than five years’ experience in the trade.  \nC. Mike has not reached the age of 25.  \nD. Mike is not a partner of Excellence Estate Agency.  \nE. Mike is not a holder of an estate agent’s licence (individual).  \nExplanation:  \nSection 38(1) of the Estate Agents Ordinance provides that any office of an estate agency business shall be under the effective and separate control of a manager whois an individual and the holder of an estate agent’s licence. Since Mike holds a salesperson’s licence but not an estate agent’s licence, he is not qualified for the post. Hence, the answer is E.  \nThere is however no specific requirement with regard to the educational level, age, experience of the licensee or whether he is a partner of the estate agency concerned for the appointment as a manager for the effective control of the business of an estate agency office in compliance with the Estate Agents Ordinance. Hence, options A, B, C and D are incorrect.  \n2.

(i) only  \nB. (ii) only  \nC. (i) and (ii) only  \nD. (ii) and (iii) only  \nE. (i),(ii) and (iii)  \nExplanation:  \nAccording to Section 2(1) of the Estate Agents Ordinance,“advertisement”(廣告) includes every form of advertisement, whether to the public or not, and whether –  \n“(a) in a newspaper or other publication;  \n(b) by television or radio;  \n(c) by the display of posters, notices, signs, labels, showcards or goods;  \n(d) by the distribution of circulars, broc","cbCaiigiGmNmWwo5","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiigiGmNmWwo5","pdf",85169,24,"English","# Sample Questions with Answers and Explanation\n## Key definitions and notes\n## Question 1: Manager post eligibility\n## Question 2: Definition of advertisement\n## Question 3: Required property information\n## Question 4: Criminal offences","[{\"question\":\"What does the document say “Hong Kong” means in its legal context?\",\"answer\":\"It defines “Hong Kong” as the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (“HKSAR”).\"},{\"question\":\"Why is Mike not qualified for the manager post in the first scenario?\",\"answer\":\"Because he holds a salesperson’s licence but not an estate agent’s licence, and the ordinance requires the manager to be an individual holder of an estate agent’s licence.\"},{\"question\":\"Which materials are treated as advertisements under the ordinance definition?\",\"answer\":\"A poster displayed in an MTR station, a price list published in a newspaper, and a leaflet inserted into residential mail boxes are all covered by different forms listed in the definition.\"}]","SP01_20E - Sample Questions with Answers and Explanation | PDF",1790032923,60,{"code":4,"msg":82,"data":99},[100,104,108,111,115,120,124,129,134,137,141],{"id":22,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":101,"show_sort_weight":102,"slug":103},"Story & Novel",90,"story-novel",{"id":26,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":105,"show_sort_weight":106,"slug":107},"Literature",80,"literature",{"id":33,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":29,"show_sort_weight":109,"slug":110},70,"exam",{"id":112,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":113,"show_sort_weight":97,"slug":114},5,"Comic","comic",{"id":116,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":117,"show_sort_weight":118,"slug":119},6,"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":55,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":121,"show_sort_weight":122,"slug":123},"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":125,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":126,"show_sort_weight":127,"slug":128},8,"Research & Report",30,"research-report",{"id":130,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":131,"show_sort_weight":132,"slug":133},9,"Religion & Spirituality",20,"religion-spirituality",{"id":132,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":135,"show_sort_weight":132,"slug":136},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":138,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":139,"show_sort_weight":138,"slug":140},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":142,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":143,"show_sort_weight":112,"slug":144},19,"General","general"]
