The Triad Renunciation Scheme, Sir, will be
open to all people wishing to sever their triad links.
Strict confidentiality will be maintained by both the
staff and the members of the Tribunal. Names of
individual applicants and renouncers will be known only
to the Tribunal and to its small Secretariat. The
secrecy provisions in sections 26K and 26L will be

the police although it will be essential for one police
officer with experience in triad matters to be available
as part of the secretariat to provide advice, where
necessary, to the Tribunal.
