MR. CHAN YING-LUNG (in Cantonese) : Sir, the Secretary for

Education and Manpower made an appeal in the last paragraph.

Could I ask the Government to please pay special attention to

Kwun Tong, Mong Kok, Causeway Bay and Ngau Tau Kok, where there

are many convenience stores. This information is given to me

by school social workers.

SECRETARY FOR EDUCATION AND MANPOWER : Sir, I am grateful to

Sc Mr. Chan for this information and will certainly pass it on to

the Labour Department. If his informants or school social

workers have any more detailed information which they could

pass to the department, this would be even more useful.

MR. YEUNG : Sir, will the Secretary state whether the four

cases of illegal employment of children found in the special

one-week operation are repeat cases of the 24 similar ones

found in the first

10

10 months of the year? And if So, what

action was taken against those establishments?

SECRETARY FOR EDUCATION AND MANPOWER : The figures are

included in the original figures but as far as I know, they are

not repeat cases.
