Supplementary to Question No. 3
in LegCo Meeting on 7.1.87
Mr. LIU (in Cantonese) : Sir,
although the Urban Services
Department is actively looking for a a suitable site to relocate
the abattoir, I still hope that the Government will try to
relocate the abattoir as soon as possible and I hope that we
can have the date fixed as soon as possible.
Secretary for Health and Welfare : Sir, as I have said there
is no plan
plan at the moment to move the whole abattoir. The
proposal is possibly to move the ancillary facilities which
could be relatively easily moved. A review is taking place of
the whole system of abattoirs in Hong Kong. That will take a
considerable time to be resolved but this may well in due
course result in the removal of the Kennedy Town Abattoir.
Dr. HO: Sir, may this Council be informed what the financial
implications are for the installation of the
system mentioned in paragraph 3 of the answer?
after-burner
Secretary for Health and
and Welfare : Sir, I don't have this
figure with me but I will write to Dr. HO and give it to him.
