It is a bit more than that. I think it is
about HK$ 19 million plus all the other charges and so on allocated
to me, including the use of computer and so on.

Commissioner, what is the extent you consider

I think the increase I asked for will be

adequate for the present purpose. I certainly would like to give it a try in the next coming year and try to divert a bit more emphasis

of Audit to the so-called special projects.

MR POON:
So actually what you have just been saying
is that during the past few years you did not have the additional resources you would like and the immediate attention is being placed
to current assessment and even though investigation itself you have
24 quite a number of professional staff already looking into it, you have
six years to go back and with the additional resources would you say
25
26 that you would adopt a balanced approach in deploying your staff to
collection of taxes and also to chasing of back duty cases?

CHAIRMAN:
Any further questions?
MR CHUNG:
Just one question. I wish to know from
the Commissioner whether after the establishment of the Investigation Unit, have there been any special projects launched and with successful result?
