    LC Paper No. CB(2)1105/07-08(01) For discussion on 22 February 2008 Legislative Council Panel on Home Affairs Subcommittee on Heritage Conservation Preservation of King Yin Lei at 45 Stubbs Road, Hong Kong PURPOSE This paper informs Members of the latest position regarding the declaration of King Yin Lei (including the associated buildings and its garden) (the “Building”) as a proposed monument on 15 September 2007 (L.N. 175 of 2007 refers) and seek Members’ views on the preservation proposals. BACKGROUND 2. The declaration of the Building as a proposed monument was made by the Authority (i.e. Secretary for Development) on 15 September 2007 after consultation with the Antiquities Advisory Board (AAB) under section 2A of the Antiquities and Monuments Ordinance (Cap. 53). The purposes of the declaration are to give the Building temporary statutory protection from further damage (the Building faced an immediate threat as some works had been carried out at the site to remove the roof tiles, stone features and window frames of the Building), to allow a period of up to 12 months for the Authority to consider in a comprehensive manner whether it should be declared as a monument and to discuss with the owner feasible options for preservation of the Building. Unless it is withdrawn earlier, the proposed monument declaration will expire after 14 September 2008. ASSESSMENT OF HERITAGE VALUE 3. Subsequent to the proposed monument declaration, the Antiquities and Monuments Office (AMO) has engaged experts both locally and from the Mainland to assess the heritage value of the Building and the scale of damage to the Building, and to advise on possible restoration options.

  • Infrastructure Development and Heritage Conservation
    213 Chapter 12 Infrastructure Development and Heritage Conservation While developing the infrastructure for Hong Kong’s economic growth, the Government is enriching the city’s living environment at the same time through conservation and revitalisation. Organisational Framework The Development Bureau was established on July 1, 2007 following the reorganisation of the Government Secretariat’s Policy Bureaux. It consists of two policy branches: Planning and Lands, and Works. The Development Opportunities Office was set up under the Bureau in 2009. The Planning and Lands Branch is responsible for policy governing planning, development, land use and supply, urban renewal, building safety, and land registration. Its policy objectives are to facilitate Hong Kong’s continual development through effective planning and use of land, a steady and sufficient supply of land, efficient registration of land, promoting and ensuring building safety and timely maintenance, and expediting urban renewal. The Works Branch is responsible for formulating public works policies and co-ordinating and monitoring the implementation of public works projects. It also takes charge of policy matters concerning greening, water supply, slope safety, and flood prevention as well as heritage conservation. The Development Bureau oversees the Planning Department, Lands Department, Buildings Department, Land Registry, Architectural Services Department, Civil Engineering and Development Department, Drainage Services Department, Electrical and Mechanical Services Department, and Water Supplies Department. The reorganisation of these nine government departments under one roof ensures more efficient co-ordination and resolution of inter-departmental issues relating to infrastructure development at an early stage. The Development Bureau is also responsible for enhancing the Government’s heritage conservation work and striking a balance between development and 214 Infrastructure Development and Heritage Conservation conservation.
