Policy Address

220. The Government proposes to use the Wan Chai Sports Ground for comprehensive development in 2019 at the earliest. Apart from convention and exhibition venues, the development proposal will comprise trendy and novel recreation and sports facilities as well as other necessary community facilities for the district, with a view to optimising land use. The TDC will conduct a feasibility study on this proposal. The Government will consult the Wan Chai District Council and other stakeholders timely.

221. Sports and recreation facilities at schools can complement those provided by the Government for the public in various districts. The EDB and the Home Affairs Bureau (HAB) will encourage public sector schools to further open up their facilities and review the promotion of sports development in schools to encourage students to develop a healthy sporting habit.

222. On the use of sports and recreation venues provided by the Government and the public’s participation in the related activities, the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD) will develop a new intelligent booking system for more efficient booking and enrolment services.
