Technical review board set up to advise on slope safety

The Governor-in-Council has decided to set up an external Technical Review Board (TRB) as recommended by the independent geotechnical expert, Professor Norbert Morgenstern, in his report on the Kwun Lung Lau landslide, and at the same time decided that any need for a Commission of Inquiry has been obviated by the report.

Announcing this today (Friday), a Government spokesman explained that the Governor-in-Council had decided in August last year that pending the conclusion of investigations by Professor Morgenstern into the landslide, the question of whether or not to appoint a Commission of Inquiry should be left open.

Supported by the technical investigation of the Geotechnical Engineering Office, Professor Morgenstern completed his investigation report which was submitted to the Governor and made public on November 30 last year.
