Fringe Benefits for married women officers
11.
In November 1980, Executive Council endorsed the
Administration's proposal that married women officers should
be eligible for the same benefits as married men officers
as far as they themselves are concerned, but not for their
husbands and children, with the exception of medical benefits
which will also be provided for their children. However,
difficulties have been encountered in implementation and
this policy is being critically re-examined, and a revised
ExCo memo is under preparation.

action. The scheme was well received.
Within the first
month of operation, a total of 6,334 enquiries were received
of which 1,510 resulted in an application for refinancing.
