It is argued that the lease fr
om the plaintiff to the defendant expired in 1999 and that therefore there is now no lease and there is therefore no lease to which section 13(1) of the Crown Lands Act would apply but section 13(1) of the Crown Lands Act must apply in my opinion to the h
ead lease by virtue of the provisions contained in that lease and as the defendant\rquote s buildings and infrastructure form part of the land in that lease then the provisions must of necessity apply to proceedings involving that infrastructure.

Section 13, is I think far more broad than that and in any event once its accepted that the buildings and infrastructure form part of the land in the lease, I think it becomes impossible
 to then attempt to separate the buildings and infrastructure from the land, that is from the lease and accordingly these proceedings are caught by the provisions of section 13(1) and the consent of the Director of Lands is required for the commencement o
f the proceedings that being so, there is no alternate left for the court but to dismiss the plaintiff\rquote s summons and I will order.
