  • One-Off Grant to the Hospital Authority for Minor Works Projects Report On
    LC Paper No. PWSC101/19-20(01) One-off Grant to the Hospital Authority for Minor Works Projects Report on 2018-19 and Forecast for 2020-21 To provide sufficient resources and to allow greater flexibility for the Hospital Authority (HA) to plan and implement more intensive programmes to improve the condition and environment of HA’s ageing facilities and enhance their service capacity to complement other major new hospital or hospital renovation projects, the Legislative Council (LegCo) Finance Committee approved on 20 December 2013 a one-off grant of $13 billion under the Capital Works Reserve Fund (CWRF) Head 708 Subhead 8083MM to HA for minor works projects for use in the next ten years or so starting from 2014-15. Each individual item is subject to a financial ceiling of $75 million. 2. Since April 2014, the one-off grant under Subhead 8083MM has replaced the block allocation to HA through CWRF Head 708 Subhead 8100MX – “Hospital Authority – improvement works, feasibility studies, investigations and pre-contract consultancy services for building projects” until the one-off grant under Subhead 8083MM is depleted. Projects funded under Subhead 8083MM can be broadly grouped into “Facility Rejuvenation”, “Capacity Enhancement”, “Safe Engineering”, “Universal Accessibility” and “Others”, which are for regular maintenance, minor works or preparatory works for major capital works projects. 3. To ensure transparency and accountability on the use of the one-off grant, HA is required to deposit with the LegCo Secretariat annually a full list of all items proposed to be funded by the one-off grant in the following financial year.
