CHAIRMAN:
Could I ask a question on the voluntary agencies,

the relationship. How do they apply to operate centres for the youth, centres for the elderly etc ? Your Department does the vetting ?

DSW:
Yes. What usually happens, Chairman, is that

we reserve, for example, for premises available in public housing estates, we receive information from the Housing Department many years ahead of the anticipated availability of these premises.

We then
notify all interested agencies that these premises will be available in whatever year they may be available and we invite bids from the
agencies.

CHAIRMAN: I see.
DSW: We then have to satisfy ourselves that the intended bids are in all respects proper and that the agencies will be able to carry out the services properly. We then earmark different agencies to run different services but the agencies cannot really produce the finalised layout plans until they have had a look at the premises and they know what sort of works are required, but we now begin this planning at least five years ahead, in some cases six years and we intend to do the same with the premises available in
private developments.
CHAIRMAN: Yes, now I understand your problem in Luk Yeung
Sun Chuen. Go ahead.
MR CHEONG: Mr Chairman, it is of course good to try and have a long-term plan but the provision of GIC facilities through private development is not necessarily going to be known five years hence. How does the process work in relation to that particular aspect ? I mean as far as Housing is concerned, you can control it to a certain extent or the Housing Department can control the
information.
