1995 Crime Victimisation Survey
A Crime Victimisation Survey will be conducted by the Census and Statistics Department starting from Wednesday (January 11).
The survey is conducted under the auspices of the Fight Crime Committee. The main purpose is to collect up-to-date information about crimes, victims and crime reporting last year.
This is the fifth time that a Crime Victimisation Survey is conducted in Hong Kong. The first such survey was conducted in 1979 and similar surveys were conducted in 1982, 1987 and 1990.
The survey is conducted under Part IIIA of the Census and Statistics Ordinance (Cap. 316, Laws of Hong Kong) and is notified in the Government Notice No. 3762 in the Gazette of October 7 last year.
In accordance with the provision of the Ordinance, all data collected in the survey relating to individual persons or households will be treated in strict confidence and will not be released to any other parties including Government departments. Only statistics will be published.
