BUILDING MANAGEMENTS SHOW IMPROVEMENTS

*****

CONSIDERABLE MANAGEMENT IMPROVEMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE AT 30 BUILDINGS IN NORTH POINT THROUGH THE JOINT EFFORTS OF THE EASTERN DISTRICT BUILDING MANAGEMENT CO-ORDINATION TEAM (BMCT), THE BUILDINGS' MANAGEMENT ORGANISATIONS AND GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENTS CONCERNED.

THIS WAS STATED BY MR LIN KA-TIN, HOUSING MANAGER OF THE EASTERN DISTRICT BMCT, IN A REVIEW OF THE TEAM'S WORK.

HE SAID HALF OF THE 30 BUILDINGS, WHICH WERE SELECTED FOR IMPROVEMENT IN 1985, HAD ACHIEVED GOOD RESULTS AND WERE NOW BEING HANDED BACK TO THE EASTERN DISTRICT OFFICE FOR FOLLOW-UP ACTION.

+HOWEVER, SOME WORK IS STILL NEEDED AT THE REMAINING 15 BUILDINGS IN THE COMING MONTHS, HE SAID.

BESIDES TACKLING PROBLEM BUILDINGS, THE TEAM ORGANISED DISTRICT-WIDE SEMINARS ON BUILDING MANAGEMENT, DEALT WITH COMPLAINTS, CO-ORDINATED ENFORCEMENT ACTION AND GAVE ADVICE ON GENERAL BUILDING MANAGEMENT ISSUES AND LEGISLATIVE PROPOSALS.

THE BMCT HAD ALSO BEEN INVITED TO PARTICIPATE IN TWO BUILDING MANAGEMENT SEMINARS ORGANISED BY THE SOUTHERN AND WAN CHAI DISTRICT OFFICES, TO HELP TACKLE BUILDING MANAGEMENT PROBLEMS IN THEIR DISTRICTS.
