Review of Civil Service

Housing Benefits

(PSU SH 12/27-C (90)

IX)

Object

To make effective use of

financial resources in

the provision of housing

benefits and to

encourage home

ownership among civil

servants.

Latest Position

Staff continued to show interest in the new civil

service housing package. As at 13.12.90, there

were 3,225 applications for joining the new Home

Financing Scheme (HFS) and 2,878 applications for

the annual quota of 1,800 Home Purchase Scheme places.

Plans for deleasing surplus non-departmental

quarters (NDQ) are in hand to rationalize the

decreasing demand as a result of officers' option

to join the HFS. 80 NDQ will be deleased soon. The

affected occupants will be provided with appropriate

assistance, e.g. removal allowance, award of

directional points in the application for other

suitable NDQ.
