Kazhdan defined property (T) for locally compact groups in terms of unitary representations [see \textit{D. A. Kazhdan}, Funct. Anal. Appl. 1, 63--65 (1967; Zbl 0168.27602)]. This property was generalized from groups to pairs \(H \subset G\) consisting of a closed subgroup \(H\) of a topological group \(G\). In this paper the author gives a complete proof of a slightly extended version of a theorem of Bates and Robertson, concerning equivalences for pairs [see \textit{T. Bates} and \textit{G. Robertson}, Bull. Aust. Math. Soc. 52, No. 1, 31--39 (1995; Zbl 0844.22011)]. As a consequence it is proved that: if \(G\) is a \(\sigma\)-compact locally compact group and if \(L \subset K \subset H\) are closed groups of \(G\), then property (T) for the pair \(L \subset G\) is inherited by the pair \(K \subset H\), provided that the homogeneous spaces \(G| H\) and \(K| L\) have invariant probability measures and \(L\) is normal in \(G\).
