The Chief Secretary for Administration will address the Council on "The Government Minute in response to the Report of the Public Accounts Committee No. 55 of February 2011". The Government Minute in response to the Report of the Public Accounts Committee No. 55 of February 2011 CHIEF SECRETARY FOR ADMINISTRATION (in Cantonese): President, laid on the table today is the Government Minute (GM) responding to Report No. 55 of the Public Accounts Committee (PAC). When presenting Report No. 55 on 16 February, the Chairman of PAC set out comments on three chapters in the Director of Audit's Reports, viz LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL ─ 18 May 2011 10391 Administration of the Direct Subsidy Scheme and Governance and administration of Direct Subsidy Scheme schools, Residential treatment and rehabilitation services for drugs abusers, and The Community Investment and Inclusion Fund. We are grateful for the time and efforts that the PAC has devoted. We accept the PAC's various recommendations and Government's specific response is set out in the GM. Today, I would like to highlight key measures we have taken in the relevant areas. The Administration agrees that the recommendations made by the PAC on the administration of the Direct Subsidy Scheme (DSS) and the governance and administration of DSS schools are conducive to the sustained improvements to the implementation of the scheme. We also consider that the recommendations can help DSS schools attain good governance. In response to the PAC's concerns and recommendations, the Education Bureau has been taking follow-up actions at two levels. First, the Education Bureau has followed up the malpractices and irregularities identified in individual DSS schools and as of now most of the cases have been settled. Second, the focus is being placed on improving the mechanisms at both the operational and system levels. Regarding the improvement measures
