PROGRESS AND PLANNING SUB-DIVISION

8.17 At the beginning of the year authority was given to establish this Sub-division on a permanent basis. Although every effort has been made to bring the staff up to strength, resignations have outpaced recruitment. However, with the help of Apprentice Engineers and Technical Apprentices undergoing training in carefully selected areas of projects, the initial work of the Sub-division has been maintained and consolidated.

8.18 With the exception of the Vehicle Section of the Kowloon Workshop, new working procedures have been introduced in all sections of the E. & M. Office Workshops, including Kennedy Town, Lai Chi Kok and Lantau Vehicle Service Stations, Fan Gardens Depot and the Parking Meter Workshop Section at Caroline Hill.

8.19 The routine work of the section continued with the aim of planning, progressing and analysing repair loads while maintaining a satisfactory repair and maintenance service to client departments at minimum cost.

8.20 Savings have been effected during the year through reorganisation of the use of reconditioned and reusable vehicle engines leading to a considerable reduction in contract repair costs. The availability of Government vehicles was improved by a number of measures but a useful improvement also resulted from tighter control on completed vehicles awaiting collection. The recycling of stocks of domestic refrigerator and electrical appliances held in Government Supplies Department has reduced the necessity of purchasing new replacement equipment resulting in substantial savings in capital expenditure.

8.21 Close liaison with Government Supplies Department continued throughout the year with E. & M. Office staff being responsible for the local purchase of non-standard spare parts, all standard items being obtained by Government Supplies Department staff.

8.22 Spares holdings continued to be reviewed, stock lists regularly updated and dead stock eliminated, thus reducing the amount of capital tied up in spares and ensuring higher utilisation of storage space.
