Ombudsman scrutinises tree management

September 23, 2014

The Ombudsman has launched an investigation into the Tree Management Office's performance and effectiveness in ensuring people's safety.

 

The watchdog will study how the Tree Management Office - which is under the Development Bureau – and other relevant Government departments co-ordinate with each other and implement policies covering tree care.

 

The Ombudsman's Office noted there were quite a few cases of trees collapsing in recent years, causing loss of life, human injury and property damage.

 

It will scrutinise the Tree Management Office's system of overseeing and co-ordinating departments and to see whether improvements can be made to make it more effective.

 

People can email their views or ask for more information from the Ombudsman's Office at: complaints@ombudsman.hk.
