Booklets, leaflets, and videotapes on building management have also been produced to promote public understanding of the subject. Members of the public are welcome to obtain copies of the publications and borrow the videotapes at district offices.
Meanwhile, HAD has formed Building Management Co-ordination Teams (BMCTs) to help owners and occupants to resolve building management disputes.
Mrs Lau said: "Nine BMCTs have been formed since 1985. These teams work closely with other government departments to identify 'target buildings' with serious management problems for inclusion in an improvement programme."
Among the 1,000 target buildings identified, over 400 have seen promising improvements after joint action by various government departments, OCs and individual owners and residents, she noted.
The Building Management Seminar '96 was jointly organised by HAD and the Housing Department, with more than 800 flat owners, office-bearers of OCs and mutual aid committees participating.
Five professionals in the field talked on their respective specialities, including the contracting out of public housing estate management, the security personnel permit, proper accounting of management fees and special funds, the role of property managers in building management and legal aspects of building management.
