HOWEVER, MR. ROBERTSON EMPHASISED THAT NONE OF THE MEASURES UNDERTAKEN DURING THIS CAMPAIGN WERE UNUSUAL, THEY WERE ALL PART OF A CONTINUOUS PROGRAMME MOUNTED BY THE GOVERNMENT.

+THE COLLECTION OF STRAY DOGS IS ALSO A CONTINUOUS OPERATION AND THE AVERAGE MONTHLY CAPTURE RATE IS IN THE REGION OF 1,000, OF WHICH 80-90 PER CENT ARE DESTROYED, HE POINTED OUT.

MR. ROBERTSON ALSO REVEALED THAT THE CAMPAIGN WOULD BE EXTENDED TO QUARRY BAY, NORTH POINT, CAUSEWAY BAY AND SO ON UNTIL ALL HONG KONG ISLAND HAD BEEN COVERED. THEN IT WOULD EVENTUALLY BE HELD THROUGHOUT KOWLOON, THE NEW TERRITORIES AND THE OUTLYING ISLANDS.

IT IS INTENDED THAT THE CAMPAIGNS WILL BE CARRIED OUT AT MONTHLY INTERVALS.

+DURING THE INTERVALS BETWEEN DISTRICT DRIVES, NORMAL DOG CONTROL ACTIVITIES WILL BE CARRIED OUT, HE SAID.
