Mr Fung Hon-chu to ask;
Is Government aware of the recent closure of a number
of private primary schools and will it in any way affect the programme of providing a primary school place for every child?
Mr Fung Hon-chu to ask:
Could this Council be informed of the progress being made on the post-primary expansion and whether any policy has been worked out to meet current and future demands for secondary education?
Dr S. Y. Chung to ask:
At present identity cards for Hong Kong residents below
the age of 17 years contain no given names nor photographs and employers find it very difficult, if not impossible, to identify the true holder of the identity card and assess the true age of their yound employees whose working conditions are governed by different sets of labour legislation. Will Government consider to amend the identity card system so that more positive identification of the card holders can be made by employers on those persons exceeding the employable age of 14 years but not yet reaching 17 years?.
Mr P. C. Woo to ask:
In view of the Honourable the Colonial Secretary's statement
in this Council on the 23rd August 1968 that Government had decided that there would be no relaxation of the ban on the discharge of fireworks, will Government reconsider relaxing the ban on the displays of fireworks, and if so, will the relaxation become effective before the next Lunar New Year?
