    LC Paper No. CB(2)1476/08-09(03) XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXLC PaperXXXXXXXXX No. XXX For discussion XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX on 11 May 2009 XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Legislative Council Panel on Health Services Relocation of Siu Lam Hospital to Block B of Castle Peak Hospital Purpose This paper seeks Members’ support for the proposed relocation of Siu Lam Hospital (SLH) to Block B of Castle Peak Hospital (CPH) in order to improve the facilities of SLH to meet prevailing standards. Background 2. SLH is one of the hospitals under the New Territories West Cluster (NTWC) of the Hospital Authority. Other hospitals in the cluster include Tuen Mun Hospital (TMH), Pok Oi Hospital and CPH. SLH is currently the only hospital providing rehabilitative and infirmary services exclusively to severely mentally handicapped (SMH) adult patients in Hong Kong. Deteriorating physical conditions in SLH 3. SLH was opened in 1972 and the physical conditions of its buildings have deteriorated over the years. One of the more disruptive and recurring problems facing SLH is roof leakage. Although re-roofing works have been carried out, rainwater leakage still occurs frequently. The damp environment also poses the risks of infection. 4. The existing sewage treatment system, with septic tanks and soakaways, has been in use since the establishment of SLH. It is approaching the end of its useful life and may pose pollution threats to the environment. Simply replacing the existing system with new septic tanks and soakaways could not meet modern standards of sanitation for health care facilities, which require the direct connection of drains to the public sewerage system to minimize the risks of pollution.
