Quality promotion services, which involve the

attainment of internationally recognised standards, calibration

services and laboratory accreditation services, are currently

provided by the Industry Department and they are of common

by Britain's National Physical Laboratory last year. The

most logical progression for these individual quality promotion

services lies in their orderly development in response to

demand, and in securing international recognition for their

integrity, so that certificates issued by the competent

authorities here may become widely accepted by Hong Kong's

major trading partners.

foreign manufacturing firms, to develop contacts with foreign

industrial organisations with a view to facilitating technology

transfer transactions, and to reinforce our industrial promotion

offices located overseas.
