IMMIGRATION DEPARTMENT TO OPEN ADDITIONAL OFFICES

The Immigration Department has plans to open another four branch

offices in various parts of Hong Kong to provide proper facilities and

to deal with problems and enquiries without delay.

This was disclosed by the Director of Immigration, Mr. W.E. Collard,

at the opening ceremony today of the Mong Kok Branch Office in Fa Yuen

Street.

The new offices will be located in Shau Kei Wan and Western

district on Hong Kong Island, at Kwun Tong in Kowloon and at Yuen Long

in the New Territories.

The Department is also looking for larger premises to replace

its office in Sham Shui Po which closed last Saturday.

Mr. Collard said the new Mong Kok office would be able to deal

with all normal types of immigration work for the residents of north-west

Kowloon.

The Chairman of the Mongkok Kaifong Association, Mr. Cho Shiu

Chung, performed the opening ceremony.
