If this should happen, the overall planning and progress of Phase III development of Tseung Kwan O New Town, including the provision of 12,000 public housing units there, will suffer a setback. Moreover, the living conditions in the cottage area would be adversely affected owing to reclamation works in the vicinity.
"We plan to give residents of the cottage area at least nine months notice prior to the commencement of the clearance. Essential community and public services will be maintained in the area until the clearance is completed," said Mr Wong.
Representatives of the Tiu Keng Leng Cottage Area were briefed on the revised clearance package today (Monday). The Sai Kung District Board will be briefed on February 14 and the Planning, Lands and Works Panel of the Legislative Council as soon as possible.
