FROM

Department

In my letter of 20 August I wrote to say that we

were consulting the Governor of Hong Kong about

Mrs Elsie Elliott's letter to Mr Wilson, alleging

corruption in the Hong Kong Resettlement Department. No Chiott's address – 55 Kung hok Road, Kuno Tong, Kowloon, Hong Kong.

The Governor has now replied that Mrs Elliott has

Previously.

already in the past made a number of allegations

against staff of the Resettlement Department. These

allegations ranged from malpractice in the allocation

of premises or shop spaces, to irregularities in the

promotion of allegedly unsuitable officers. All

at the time, Mrs Elliott's allegations were investigated both by the Resettlement Department and by the Anti-Corruption

Office, but without result.

The information in Mrs Elliott's letter to Mr Wilson

dated 29 June is apparently insufficiently detailed

to provide the basis for a further investigation but if Mrs Elliott could provide futher details to the

Hong Kong Government they will be fully investigated.

Inchin Min Elliou's letter herewith.
