Supplementary to question No. 6

in the LegCo Meeting on 4.12.85

Mr. Chan Ying-lun:- Sir, about parents' complaints, does the

Secretary for Education and Manpower have the statistics showing

the tendency for the last three years?

Secretary for Education and Manpower:- Sir, I am afraid I only have

the recent figures on corporal punishment, not on all categories.

Mr. Chan Ying-lun:- Sir, when did the Government form its policy

towards disciplinary action and does the Government think it necessary

to review the policy to reach the aim of administering proper

disciplinary action?

Secretary for Education and Manpower:- I think Sir, this policy is

of many years' standing. If any member would wish to indicate the

areas that they would wish to see reviewed I would be happy to consider

those with the Director of Education.
