DR. TSE (in Cantonese) : Sir, under miscellaneous loans,
is any provision made for repayment of loans as a result
of gambling and in the nine cases investigated, as well as
other cases investigated in the past, does Government have
reason to believe that illegal loans given to police
officers are in any way related to criminal syndicate
activities targetted at the police?
SECRETARY FOR SECURITY : No, Sir, to answer the last part
of my hon. Friend's question, from the cases investigated
we have no evidence that they
they are in fact loans from
syndicates directly aimed at criminal activity and
particularly against the police force. ТО answer the
first part of my hon. Friend's question, under
miscellaneous loans they
they would not normally be allowed
loans for the repayment of gambling debts.
