In comparison, for a public housing project, only the handover of flats will be announced. At present, it may not be
feasible to get access to all the information about one specific public housing project. Some of the information may
be accessible if there are District Council, Legislative Council or government department discussions. However, the
disclosure of such information is not voluntary and systematic. The information gathering work on public housing
progress becomes time-consuming and fruitless as a result.
We advocate that the Government should create a one-stop disclosure platform to disclose to the
public the progress of individual public housing projects, so every member in the society can get
access to all the information easily. As the public gets hold of the information needed for checking on
the progress. Government bureaus could be held accountable for their works and the development
timeline could be better adhered.
