under the Post-Secondary Colleges Ordinance; it

would change it from the kind of college which is

envisaged in that Ordinance to a totally different

kind of institution comparable with the other

tertiary institutions.

Sir, what were the terms of reference given for

the CNAA team when they came to Hong Kong in 1986?

Were the terms of reference only on the assessment

of academic standard of the college in order to

justify the continuation of Government assistance?

If not, what else was the CNAA team asked to assess

at that time?

SECRETARY

FOR

EDUCATION

AND MANPOWER:

Sir, yes, the purpose of the assessment was to

to justify continued assistance.

Sir, can I ask the Secretary whether he can make

will 人

whether he will or

put the CNAA report to UPGC' for consultation?
