Question 7 Page 3

MR. SZETO

(in Cantonese): Sir, according to media

coverage, this particular partition was not originally

part of the premises. It was actually an addition to the

premises. Could this Council be informed when such

whether

additions were made,

人

the department concerned was informed, whether

the

approval was given by the department and whether department

did any inspection?

SECRETARY FOR LANDS AND WORKS : Sir, I do not know

specifically the answer to that. As far as I am aware

the Buildings Ordinance Office was not informed. We

were aware of the fact that this school was undertaking

a number of improvements and repairs and in fact these

have been ongoing over several years.

Ordinance Office but I am not absolutely certain about that.

I might add, Sir, that since the recent accident, the

Buildings Ordinance Office has been to the school and has

investigated the situation there;

it is issuing an

advisory letter to the school principal, advising

him to

appoint an Authorised Person to have a look at the

situation there and to draw up proposals for any remedial

measures to the remaining structures which may be required.

These

will be submitted to the Buildings Ordinance

Office for consideration.
