Arrangements, he said, will be made for paying other creditors
after Chinese New Year. A separate notice regarding these arrangements will
be published later.
Mr. Hume explained that each depositor and gift coupon holder should
attend on the appropriate day and time for his account, bringing with him
his Identity Card, Pass-Book, Deposit Receipt, Bank Statement, gift coupon,
or other evidence of his claim, and also his signature chop, if he uses one.
If anyone has lost or mislaid his Pass-Book, Deposit Receipt or
gift coupon he should NOT attend. Arrangements for dealing with such cases
will be published later.
Authorised Representative
If a depositor or gift coupon holder is unable to attend in person,
he can authorise payment to his representative by completing a form of
Authority for Payment of Dividend.
Copies of the form will be available during normal office hours
from today onwards at the Official Receiver's Office, Sutherland House,
10th floor, 3 Chater Road, and at the Registrar General's Department, Central
Government Offices, West Wing, 6th floor.
Arrangements for payment to depositors or holders of gift coupons who are unable to attend in person or by duly authorised representative at the specified dates and times for their accounts will be announced later.
Creditors are strongly advised to have nothing to do with any
unauthorised person, and in particular NOT to hand over their documents to
anyone other than the authorised staff inside the offices referred to above.
