"This Department is entirely conscious of the need for a new and
larger home," Mrs. Chen says. "We have been in contact with other departments
about this for some time,
"We are doing everything to expedite the Ho Man Tin plan, but other
departments are also involved."
Accommodation pressure at Ma Tau Wei has never been allowed to
interfere either with the corrective processes or the physical and mental
well-being of the girls.
The staff take particular care to meet the occasions of sudden inflow,
and adequate facilities are always found. The former accept personal inconveniences
so that the standards of general welfare can be sustained.
"Indeed, the staff are to be complimented for their efforts," Mrs.
Chen comments,
She says temporary alternative accommodation has been considered for
some girls, who will move over to a hostel maintained by a voluntary organisation,
along with appropriate staff.
