520			_aCA 16 November 1999. In December 1992 British Railways Board granted the appellant (V) a lease of a car park for a term expiring in August 1997. Following the privatisation of British Railways Board, Regional Railways North East Ltd (R) became the competent landlord for the purposes of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954. In 1996 R served notice on V terminating the tenancy. The notice stated that R would oppose the grant of a new tenancy on ground (g) of s30(1) of the Act because it wanted to occupy the car park for the purposes of its business. It was held that ground (g) was satisfied, that the respondent had a genuine intention of occupying the premises for the purposes of its business and that R satisfied the five-year period of ownership for the purposes of s30(2) as the landlord and board were part of the same group of companies. V appealed that part of the decision relating to the five-year period. Appeal dismissed.
