Mr Secretary, may this Committee seek
confirmation from you that the new forms of leave application and
recording leave earnings will be issued for use immediately after
the finalisation of the rationalisation and simplification of the

We
Thank you, Mr Lee. In fact, Mr Lee, the new
forms have now been issued. They have just been issued last week.
have had some ongoing discussions with the Government Data Processing
Agency regarding computerisation but because this latter aspect will take a little longer we have decided to introduce the new forms first.
As far as making these forms computer readable is concerned, we have
completed a project definition study and we will be going to the
Central Committee in Government to obtain funds for this project.
