Supplementary to Question No. 2
in vegco Meeting on 25.5.88
DR. LAM (in Cantonese)
Sir, will the Government inform
this Council whether the policy of localisation in certain
government departments has been adversely affected and
delayed owing to resignation or early retirement?
CHIEF SECRETARY Sir, I do not think the figures that I
have for the resignation rate in government departments,
even in the worst cases, have affected in any material way
the localisation policy. Our policy on localisation is
that it should be at the recruitment level and there is no
shortage of recruits from local officers in any of the
major fields of activity of the Government.
MR. POON CHI-FAI (in Cantonese) : Sir, will the Government
inform this Council which department
resignation rate, and what are the causes?
