if so, why this happened
and what has been done and will be done to
ensure that the problem does not recur.
At these public hearings the Committee will simply be
asking questions. After the hearings the Committee meets in private to discuss the evidence which it has heard, and to come
to its own conclusions. These conclusions and recommendations
will not be known to the public until the Committee has reported
back to the Legislative Council. That will be on February 18th
1987, when our Report is tabled and published. Until then we will
not, as a Committee or individually, be making any public comments
on these cases.

MR LEE:
Mr Secretary, may I refer to paragraph 13
32
of the Director of Audit's report in which there is a quotation from 31 the White Paper of 1978 and that reads: "A reasonable share of the
cost of extended education should be met through fees coupled with satisfactory arrangement to provide relief to students from less
affluent families" and I understand that subsidised schools are
allowed to grant exemption, full exemption, from fees to 45% of
students in Forms IV and V and to 50% of the students in Forms VI
