PROPOSED CATTLE QUARANTINE DEPOT ON TSING YI ISLAND
The Government proposed to build a modern cattle quarantine
depot at the south-east corner of Tsing Yi Island.
The depot, when completed, will handle all cattle entering
Hong Kong in the foreseeable future.
Berth facilities for both cattle ships and lighters will
be provided as a part of the project.
The existing lairages at Kennedy Town and Ma Tau Kok, which
at present inconvenience the people living nearby will be closed.
The boundaries within which a pier and/or a reclamation is
to be constructed are fully described in a Notification in today's
Gazette.
The Notification calls upon people having objections to the
proposed lairage or any claims of private right in the matter, to
submit them in writing to the Director of Public Works within two
months of the date of the Notice.
The Notification, in both English and Chinese, can also be
seen on Notice Boards posted near the site.
