31 classes; one additional floating class for a period of

MR.
ANDREW WONG : Sir, may I go back to my original
question and ask what are the existing projections for
1991 in terms of total population for New Territories
East, and for Form I places in New Territories East? IS
the Government prepared to have a certain percentage of
these Form I students going out of the New Territories
East to attend schools in Kowloon?
population
SE CRE TARY FOR EDUCATION AND MANPOWER : The actual
projections are available in published
documents but I will make copies available to Mr. WONG.
Our present
planning is intended to provide for no
movement out of the region except on a voluntary basis.

MR. TAI : Sir, will the Secretary take special note of the
age of the new residents when updating the
projections for school places in 1992, so as to get a more
accurate estimation of secondary and primary school needs
in that particular area?
