The theme this year is “Quality Housing • Green Living”, which encapsulates the HA’s unwavering commitment to providing quality homes for those in need of public housing, and promoting green living to our community. We are pleased to share with you in the report our fruitful achievements made in the past year. Sustainable and quality housing should not be compromised in the process of increasing public housing supply. In the planning and design stage, we continued to apply the specifications of Building Environmental Assessment Method (BEAM) Plus, conduct Carbon Emission Estimation, and adopt passive design strategy in various public housing projects, in order to enhance building sustainability and resilience. During the year, we had one project attaining provisional platinum rating and three projects with provisional gold rating under BEAM Plus. To enhance the quality, efficiency and site safety of our construction activities, we have been progressively adopting more precast concrete components, volumetric precast bathrooms and kitchens, and off-site construction in our projects over the last 25 years. We have developed precast acoustic balconies this year. In parallel, we are also exploring to adopt enhanced precast concrete components, such as semi-precast slab with pre-installed service conduits in the common areas of typical floors. With these, the precast rate will increase from current 70% to about 90% in terms of floor area. Besides, we will also continue to adopt the latest technologies and IT solutions, including Building Information Modelling (BIM), to harvest even greater efficiencies in our operations. Message from the Chairman 6 With respect to estate management, we promote a greener way of living to our residents and the community. We have made extra efforts on waste reduction this year to echo the Government’s proposed Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) Charging Scheme. In collaboration with relevant government departments, we have launched a MSW charging trial programme with our tenants in selected public rental housing estates, and a food waste off-site recycling pilot scheme at
