Mr Dennis Canavan (West Stirlingshire): To ask the Lord Privy Seal, if he will publish in the Official Report the company or companies involved in the private development of the mass transit railway depot site proposed at Sai Lau Kok, Hong Kong, their authorised and paid up capital, the officers and principal shareholders and which of these officers or shareholders, if any, are members of: (a) the Lands Tribunal, (b) the Advisory Committee on Transport or (c) any other committee that advises on or is consulted over the route and planning of finance of the mass transit railway operations in the New Territories.

MR PETER BLAKER

The area of land known as Sai Lau Kok is required for the construction of Tsuen Wan station, the main line, associated lines and some highway works. The private development planned is to the east of this area.

The companies currently involved in this development are the Sun Company Limited and the Kiu Kwong Investment Corporation Limited. The involvement of Jardine Matheson and Company Limited and the Hong Kong Land Company Limited has been agreed but not yet finalised. The details requested are contained in public documents available in Hong Kong; copies will be placed in the Library of the House when available. However, none of the officers or principal shareholders is a member of the Lands Tribunal or of the Transport Advisory Committee.
