16-07-2015

The government will review all aspects of public housing projects

The Housing Secretary, Anthony Cheung, said on Thursday that a committee will be set up to comprehensively review quality controls for materials used in public housing projects. Speaking at the conclusion of a meeting of the Housing Authority, he said the committee will look into how the government supervises work at various stages of the construction process. Professor Cheung said if the committee discovers any inadequacies, the government would make the necessary changes and improvements. The decision to set up the committee came after lead contamination of water was found in some public housing estates. http://rthk.hk/rthk/news/englishnews/20150716/news_20150716_56_1116479.htm
