Advisory Committee Submits Report

The first interim report of the Hong Kong Island Advisory Committee for Recreational Development and Nature Conservation covering the period, November 1970 to December 1971, has now been submitted to Government, the Chairman, Mr. R.C. Clarke, stated today.

This Committee was appointed in November 1970 to advise on schemes for the recreational use and conservation of the countryside and to prepare a 5-year programme for this purpose.

It was set up under the chairmanship of Director of Lands & Survey and has representatives from the University of Hong Kong, Tourist Association, the Hong Kong Council of Social Service and the Urban Council

as well as other Government officers.

In March 1971 the Committee submitted its first 5-year programme together with an estimate of cost. It has subsequently supported this

with further details.

It is understood that these recommendations are still being

studiod and it is hoped that funds will be made available in the not too

distant futuro.
