HIS EXCELLENCY THE PRESIDENT : I have three more Members'

names down to ask supplementaries.

I propose to limit it

at that otherwise we shall not get on to the rest of the

questions in the usual time.

MR. CHEUNG (in Cantonese) : Sir,

Sir, the queue of the vehicles

going through the crossing point at Man Kam Το is

sometimes several miles long and take up part of the road,

and it is fortunate that the other lane of the road

road is

still available for traffic. But, some drivers

drivers who want

to jump the queue use the spare lane and they have caused

traffic congestion. Can the Government send traffic

policemen to patrol the area So that such queue jumping

will not happen? And will the Secretary consider

restricting the number of licences authorising cars to go

through the border in order to alleviate the situation?
