Matters Arising Responses of Government Departments and Relevant Organisations to Matters Arising from the Previous Meeting (Paper No. DH 12/2020) 5. Mr SIN Cheuk-nam wanted to enquire of the Housing Department about one special case, i.e. when the marital status of a prospective tenant of Chun Yeung Estate was changed, whether he/she could be on the waiting list for public rental housing again and benefit from policy arrangement, such as gaining admission to Tuen Mun Interim Housing as a public rental housing tenant. 6. Mr CHAN Pui-ming pointed out that the reply of the Housing Department had not mentioned whether there would be any ex gratia arrangement or objective standard if there were changes in the number of family members of prospective tenants of Chun Yeung Estate, including the change of marital status, new births and changes arising from the change of the health status of family members. He wanted to enquire about the detailed arrangements of the ( 3 ) Action return of Chun Yeung Estate in July besides distributing HK$6,000. 7. The views of Mr Michael YUNG were summarised below: ( a ) with regard to the arrangement that Chun Yeung Estate would be returned by Department of Health (DH) in July to the New Building Sub-section of the Housing Department for repairing first and then public rental housing flats would be allocated, he wanted to know whether the Housing Department had kept records of which flats were lent and used for quarantine; ( b ) he asked if flats with confirmed cases in Chun Yeung Estate would be disinfected; ( c ) he wanted to know, since Chun Yeung Estate had been used as a quarantine centre, how many prospective tenants were allocated to the areas they had selected and how many were allocated to other areas and how much it would affect the public rental housing waiting list; ( d ) he pointed out that it was customary for the Housing Department to explain the facilities of housing estates to District Councillors or open some flats for public viewing before distributing keys, be it public rental housing or home ownership scheme housing. He had reported to the District Officer/Sha Tin of the District Management Committee of Sha Tin District that these were how previous staff members of the Housing Department would arrange. He wanted to know if there would be flats opened to the public in Chun Yeung Estate; and ( e ) he wanted to know what the environmental impact of Chun Yeung Estate as a quarantine centre was and how to deal with future traffic problems. 8. Ms NGO Po-ling, Senior Housing Manager (Tai Po, North and Sha Tin 1), Housing Department gave a consolidated response as follows: ( a ) the special arrangements of Chun Yeung Estate that members enquired about were flat allocation policies. She said that it was not appropriate to provide the details of some cases here and she could refer the cases provided by members to the Allocation Section for follow-up after detailed understanding; ( b ) since the prospective tenants of Chun Yeung Estate had not moved in yet, the Estate Management Division had no information on the relevant cases for the time being; ( c ) the information about which flats of Chun Yeung Estate housed confirmed cases belonged to the DH; ( d ) matters about the public rental housing waiting list were managed by the Application Sub-section.
