SECRETARY FOR SECURITY:
Sir, The Government is aware
that some Hong Kong residents have
experienced inconvenience in getting
through immigration control at the Hong
Kong International Airport during peak
hours because the lines designated for
them are sometimes also used by overseas
visitors.
の
A segregated system achieves
its best results of residents and
non-residents are processed in separate
halls, with separate resources. The
.
immigration facilities at Kai Tak
Airport were, however, only designed for what is called
open front clearance. The Government,
nevertheless, recognises that Hong Kong
residents should be cleared through
immigration control as speedily and
efficiently as possible and has
designated certain counters for them.
In addition, whenever resources permit,
the Immigration Department deploys
regulators in the halls to help
passengers queue in the right lines.
