Numbers of HMOCS Members likely to be involved

ANNEX A

Since it is very difficult to predict accurately how many HMOCS

members will remain to benefit from the scheme, this Annex sets out worst, medium and best case scenarios.

Taking account only of natural retirement, by 1997 there will be

about 500 HMOCS members left. In addition by 1997, taking account

only of natural retirement, there would be some 390 other civil

servants who could opt to become HMOCS members. Thus if all these

officers decided to stay on and none decided to resign, die or

otherwise leave the service, the maximu number of HMOCs members in

the service in 1997 would be 890. This would clearly indicate a

very "stable and prosperous" Hong Kong and a very favourable deal

for HMOCS members. From 890 should be deducted a figure of 140 to

take account of HMOCS members who will retire under other, special,

schemes already established, leaving 750 others.

The "best" case scenario would thus involve 750 officers receiving

compensation in 1997. Thereafter, the best case scenario would

assume that officers only left on natural retirement. Actual

calculations based on officers ages indicates that the numbers would

reduce as follows:-

1997 750

1998 717

1999 691

2000 665

2001 632

2002 594

2003 560

2004 513

2005 475

2006 433
