FINAL REPORT OF INDUSTRIAL TRAINING ADVISORY COMMITTEE
Detailed Examination Now Almost Completed
Detailed examination of the Final Report of the Industrial
Training Advisory Committee is now almost completed, and it is hoped
that firm recommendations for the setting up of a permanent Industrial
Training Council can be submitted to the Governor in Council soon.
The Commissioner of Labour, the Hon. Paul Tsui, stated this
today in the Legislative Council in reply to Dr. the Hon. S.Y. Chung.
Dr. Chung had naked: "Is Government in a position to state
its view on the establishment of a Hong Kong Industrial Training Council
as proposed by the Industrial Training Advisory Committee in its final
report submitted two years ago, and, if not, when is Government likely
to come to a decision on this important matter?"
Mr. Tsui told the Council that Government was at one with the
Advisory Committee in that it fully realised the importance of the matter.
He said that "a reorganized industrial training complex along
the lines as indicated in the ITAC Final Report should go a long way to
solve the many problems which confront us in the field of industrial
training, provided that we are careful to ensure we establish the right
machinery to achieve the results we all desire."
"Because of this need for care, we have been examining all
aspects of the matter in detail," he added.
